"What are you doing in there?" Alex finally asked when they were finally out of the kitchen and back in their tent.
He had been searching for her since he went back to their tent but did not found her anywhere. Luckily, Jacky told him that she left Dani inside the house. He noted that he needed to fix their mobile phone situation. They could not function efficiently without it.
"I was hiding from your cousin." She voiced out her actual reason for leaving the beach. "I figured that the kitchen would be the last place he would think of looking for me." She smiled at her brilliance.
"That was a clever thing to do. Yeah, you are right. Edward would never set foot in the kitchen." Alex could not help but feel pride with the woman in his arms.
The fact that she was not charmed by his cousin was a testament that she was indeed an intelligent woman and quite extraordinary. She did not even require his help to get out of that situation.
