Rae felt nervous and scared as he stared at her. She suddenly move backwards. Gael slowly walked closer to her. And that makes Rae uncomfortable while she were walking backwards trying to avoid him. Because Rae can't see her back while she were walking backwards, she didn't noticed the sofa she were about to hit. She suddenly sat down when she hit it. Gael continue to walk towards her and when he got closer to her, he lowered down his head near to her face.
"Are you afraid being with me?", Gael seriously asked while he were looking at him in her eyes.
Gael felt Rae's body trembling with nervousness while he were talking to her. The closeness of their faces makes Rae felt a little bit uneasy. So, Rae suddenly stood up in his chair and she quickly moved away from him.
Gael's gaze followed her and slowly stood up with a grin in his lips.
"I need to go home", Rae said as she bowed her head and stared at the floor trying to avoid looking at him in the eye.
"Oppps! I was just joking. So don't be afraid of me.", Gael said in his calm voice and then he smiled at her.
Rae slowly raise her head when she heard what he just said.
"I-I really need to go", Rae said and she went straight to the door.
She tried to turned the knob of the door but it doesn't open. Just to realized that they were locked up inside Gael's villa. And the guard have gotten the key. So she don't have any other choice but to stay quiet. She closed her eyes and turned her looked at Gael.
Gael just stared at her as she made her way to the door and forced it to open. Gael heard the rattles of the doorknob many times but he just ignored it. He saw how Rae were very frustrated and disappointed when she could not open the door.
"Stop doing that, it can't help. We are stuck in here until someone gets to see us", Gael said while trying to calm himself.
"You might break it by forcing it to open", he added.
"Then, what are we gonna do now?", Rae asked. You can hear by the sound of her tone that she badly wanted to go home.
"Stay here", Gael simply answered to her question.
"WHHAT?!", Rae said aloud while looking at him.
Gael chuckles softly while covering his ears because of her loud voice.
Meanwhile at Davis Residence..
Mrs. Davis already done the dishes and arranged the kitchen. After that, she headed to the living room and she found her husband and son watching the television. They are enjoying watching the television and they are even laughing at it. She turned her gazed to her son.
"Is your sister home yet?", Mrs. Davis asked to his son Marco.
They suddenly looked at Mrs. Davis for a minute and they gazed back to the television.
"She went to the beach earlier to get some fresh air.", Marco answered.
"Didn't she told you a while ago?", Marco continued.
Mrs. Davis suddenly thought.
"Yeah, I heard. But I haven't noticed her coming back inside the house.", Mrs. Davis said while she walked her way to Rae's room.
She knocked the door.
"Rae? Are you in there?", Mrs. Davis asked aloud behind the door.
She waited for an answer but Rae didn't answered. She presses her ears to the door of the room and listened if there is anyone in there but she couldn't hear anything. She rattles the doorknob and tried to open the door but to her surprise, it was locked.
She went back to the living room.
"Rae's door in her room is locked. It's strange", she confusedly said to her husband and son who were still watching the television.
"Honey, she might already asleep.", Mr. Davis answered.
"You know Rae, she were always locking her door when she's sleeping", he continued.
"Yeah mom, she maybe sleeping soundly that's why", Marco said to her mother while looking at her.
"I was just too worried, that's all", Mrs. Davis said while she walked away and went outside at the back of their house.
Back to the villa..
Rae were sitting on the floor near the door while Gael was sitting on the adjacent sofa.
Gael looked at her.
"It would be too tiring on your part if you are going to seat there until morning", Gael seriously said.
Rae nervously looked at her.
"I-I am fine", Rae responded to him.
"You sure? Your body is telling you're not", Gael continued.
"I won't do anything here, just come and seat here", Gael said while he were pointing at the sofa near him.
Rae stare at him long enough to make Gael look away.
"O-Okay, I won't bother you", Gael said while he raise his hand as if surrendering into convincing her.
"I am Gael by the way. Gael Moore—-.", He continued.
"I-I know. You were the one in the square last time", Rae cut what he was about to say.
"Oh yeah?", Gael grunt while he moved his body and lay down on the sofa.
"You were the famous singer. Everyone knows you", she continued while she slowly gazed at him.
"Except you? I guess", he asked like he wanted to indicate something.
"I-I am Rae", she said and take a glance at him and ignored the question of Gael. And at the back of her mind, 'Yes, except me'.
Gael who were about to lay down suddenly got up and looked at her.
"Nice to meet you Rae", Gael smilingly said and glance at her too.
Their eyes met AGAIN.
And then there were silence..
After three (3) hours. It was already 2:00 am.
Rae were still wide awake while staring at Gael who were already sounded asleep while lying in the sofa. She thought about their conversation earlier.
*******
"Do you have a phone? We could call someone?", Rae asked her.
"None. I intentionally left my phone at the hotel", Gael answered him directly.
"How about you? ", Gael questioned him back.
"None", Rae said and then she sighed.
"I guess we're gonna be spending the night here together", Gael chuckles softly.
Rae suddenly frightened when she heard the word TOGETHER. It gave her goosebumps.
"I know what you were thinking but stop it right there. I am not going to do anything", Gael answered him directly.
"I am not that kind of guy who would take advantage, especially if the girl doesn't have the same feeling towards me", he continued.
'He reads what's in my mind, embarrassing', Rae at the back of her head. Then she turned her gazed to the floor.
"If you changed your mind and wanted to take a good night sleep. There is a room left unlocked at the right side of the door.", Gael said while he is pointing the other door near her.
"You can take a rest there. I'll be staying here", he continued while tapping the sofa that he were sitting on.
Gael lay down and slept. While Rae were still not moving from where she is.
****
While Rae was about to sleep where she was. She heard something. And the sound came from the kitchen near them. She was frightened. But out of curiosity she moved her body and suddenly she stood up slowly and walked her way to the kitchen.
She were going to passed through Gael so she moved so slowly so he won't wake him up.
It was very quite.
When she reached the kitchen, she saw something that was moving. She walked closer to it. Suddenly, a black cat jumped in front of her. It makes her screamed so loud.
"AAHHHHH!", Rae screamed aloud and run to Gael.
Her screamed prevails inside the villa.
