Natalie finished washing up and stepped out of the bathroom. She looked around the big bedroom but didn't see Mikael so she went outside.
With the small towel in her hands, she started wiping her wet hair.
''Mikael, where are you?'' Natalie called as she walked to the hall. She looked at the terrace and saw Mikael standing there.
Natalie stood at the doorway and watched him as he smoked. She sighed and walked up to him and hugged him from the back.
''Natalie...'' Mikael quenched the cigarette in his hand and turned to look at her. He put it in the ashtray.
''What's wrong? This is the first time you are smoking. I remember you said you quitted smoking and would only smoke when you are under a lot of pressure. Tell me, is there something going on with you?''
''How was work today? Did Daniel Song give you a hard time?''
''You don't want to answer my question. It's okay. I won't press on with it.''
