[Rhia's POV]
Twiddling with the silver ring on her finger, Rhia gazed up at the darkening sky from outside their terrace. It was Saturday evening. Four days had passed since Adrian and his family went to Alaminos.
Rhia grabbed her smartphone and stared at the blank screen. She still hasn't received a reply for the message she sent him after work. Adrian didn't answer her calls either.
"Maybe he's still asleep?" she mused to herself and turned to the German Shepherd on her lap. "What do you think, Addy?"
The dog only wagged its tail and moved its head on her thighs before it stayed still again. From what she was told, Abigail—Adrian's sister—entrusted the dog to the care of a relative living nearby, but it seemed Addy didn't like being tied.
