"Jared," Maggie was dumbfounded to see Jared at this time of the day. Although it was not unexpected to see him in front of her room, she had not expected him to do so either. Her reaction made Jared chuckle and his heart turned giddy seeing the effect he had on her.
"May I come in?" His strangely calm face made Maggie worry about herself and she did not know how to react. Never had he behaved with her this way before. The man did as he wished without asking anybody their permission. His sudden change in behavior was unacceptable and Maggie was having an ominous feeling all of a sudden.
"Why are you being strange all of a sudden?" The words left Maggie's lips before she could even control herself and Jared's smile only widened at her confusion.
"Strange? How am I being strange?"
"It was never your style to ask permission. You did as you wished and if you wanted to enter my room, you would have done so by now."
