Chapter 32: Yes, I do.

I knock on the front door and patiently wait for someone to answer. The air is growing harsher, whipping around me as darkness invites itself into the sky. In an effort to stay warm, I bounce on the heels of my trainers and knock again. Moments pass and the door is opened, revealing Ivory. Our eyes connect and I smile at her, wondering when was the last time I'd seen her. It's definitely been a while.

"Hey," She says, shooting me a small smile. She's wearing a white tee with baby pink jogging bottoms underneath. Ivory pulls back the door, gesturing for me to come inside.

"Hey Ivory, is Tobias home? He text me a while back asking me to come round." I explain, glancing around. Ivory shakes her head, her auburn hair flying around her shoulders. I pause and look at her, remembering Tobias' words a few weeks ago on the beach.

Ivory has been distant lately.
