At three o'clock in the afternoon, Alexa had just returned to the apartment after almost half a day out with Gea who always asked to be treated to food or shopping for clothes and accessories. She walked casually into the living room, then immediately fell on the sofa.
"I wonder... what is Mrs. Siska doing right now? Did she go straight to Bastian, then they got into a fight? Or... maybe everything is fine because she's afraid of losing him so she keeps quiet?" Alexa wondered as she stared blankly at the ceiling. She imagined how Siska looked when she saw the truth about Bastian.
"If Melvin was like Bastian, maybe I wouldn't be as strong as Mrs. Siska... maybe I would faint on the place. But I hope that never happens... Melvin is loyal and he loves me ... I have to be sure of that," Alexa muttered, continuing to monologue with herself until she finally fell asleep because she hadn't had time to take a nap.
