Natalia
"I should go", I whisper to Mrs. Hoffman while standing up. "What? No. No, Natalia. I just got here… and we have so much to talk about." She looks at me disappointed and I feel compelled to listen. "Come", she gestures. "Come, come, come", she says excitedly. I smile at her and follow her to one of the bedrooms.
Once we enter the spacious room, I notice a few shopping bags sitting on one of the beds. "I got Aidan a few outfits and well, I got you some pajamas to spend the night", she says to me casually. "Actually a few pajamas for a few nights", she corrects herself. My eyes get huge at the mention of pajamas and spending the night. "But, Mrs. Hoffman, I am not planning to spend the night", I say to her, nervously.
