"They're coming with us?"
As if to prove his declaration that they wouldn't be getting any rest, they continued throughout the night. They didn't know how much time had passed and had lost count on how many times they had made love.
As if reaping his reward for all the time they had been apart, Ethan never let her out of his arms. Completely exhausted, Adelina leaned her head against his chest.
"Why? You don't like it?"
"No! Of course that's not it!"
Ethan had brought up this subject as he stroked Adelina's back. He proposed that they bring Doen and Nisha to the bamboo grove with them.
Adelina had wanted this so much, but she couldn't bring herself to ask Ethan, so she kept it buried within the deepest parts of her heart. But Ethan had brought it up first, so she was at a loss for words due to the shock.
"Can Nisha and Doen truly come with us?"
"Are you still unable to trust me?"
