<div style="text-align: justify;">Angelique could see that Kyle was really proud of the work he was doing with the house. Well, he had every reason to be, from what she could see. Not only was the house a beauty in of itself, he was still making it even better. It did sadden her just a little that the kitchen had to be modernized. Something within her longed for something she had never actually had when looking around at the house. Shaking her head, Angie chalked it up to tiredness. She really needed to relax.<br/><br/>“I’m sure I’ll have wonders to say about the house. It’s not hard to see it for the beauty it is”, she replied sincerely to his comments.<br/><br/>Upstairs, standing at the door of the master bedroom, Angelique was still a bit unsure. Sure, she liked the room. It was large - she loved large spaces - and it seemed comfortable. But she would never have it if it meant to displace Kyle. He was the one putting a lot of work and effort in the house, after all.<br/><br/>Only after he said he was already settled elsewhere did she decide that she could, then, accept the master bedroom. <br/><br/>“I see nothing wrong with it, I really don’t. If I can be completely honest, I love the room. I just wanted to make sure I was not displacing you”, Angelique explained quietly. “If I am not, so I will happily settle here. It’s gorgeous”.<br/><br/>Sighing in relief when Kyle suggested she should take a nap and a shower, Angelique nodded enthusiastically. “Sounds like a great idea. I really need both right now”. She nodded again when he added that she should meet him in the kitchen whenever she was read. “Thanks, and don’t worry about me. I just need some rest for now, and we'll meet up later”. After these words, Angelique waited for Kyle to leave and closed the door. After a look out the window - there wasn’t much that could be seen, since it was getting dark -, Angie took off her shoes and clothes, adjusted her phone to wake her up in forty minutes and dropped on the bed.<br/><br/>During the next forty minutes, Angelique was completely out of the world. The second her head hit the pillow, she was out cold, tired of the long trip there and everything that had happened in the past few weeks. When her phone beeped with the alarm, Angie groaned softly, but it didn’t take long for her to open her eyes and sit up in bed, feeling refreshed.<br/><br/>After stretching like a cat for almost an entire minute, Angelique got up and picked up the clothes she wanted to wear after her shower - a pair of underwear, and after some hesitation, she ended up settling for a baby blue dress that fit her nicely. For some reason, she wanted to look nice for Kyle. Probably just gratitude for his willingness to help, she thought to herself.<br/><br/>The shower helped her relax even more, and after getting her hair combed and getting just a dab of her usual lavender scented cologne, Angelique finally went down, feeling like food was an extremely attractive thought right now.<br/><br/>As she finally saw herself back on the first floor, the scent of the food made her even hungrier than she had already felt while in her room. Walking to the dining room - she had decided to take Kyle take care of everything for their first meal in the house -, Angelique smiled while looking around. It looked really great.<br/><br/>“Starving”, she replied sincerely when Kyle said he hoped she was hungry. With a broad smile, she allowed him to help her with her chair, feeling incredibly comfortable in that room.<br/><br/>“Seems like you have thought about everything”, she commented when he presented her the wine. “Except for the accent. You leave that for me”, she joked, watching Kyle move to get settled.<br/><br/>“Do you remember the last night we spent under the same roof?”, she asked, reminiscing in a neutral way. Had she imagined how much he had been thinking about that, Angie probably wouldn't have brought it up. “I have to admit this place is a lot nicer than a crowded house by the sea, eh?”, she completed, taking a sip of the wine and waiting for him to say something.</div>
