thad a series of disturbing dreams. One moment, I saw Ethan getting a call from Leah and walking away without a second thought in my past life.

In the next dream, Ethan and I were in a private room, and he was coldly telling me to leave Leah alone.

The last image was the worst. After we'd been intimate, Ethan looked at me with disgust and said, "Evelyn, you're really repulsive."

"No...it wasn't me." I mumbled, trying to defend myself.

I woke up suddenly, staring at the sunlight reflecting on the ceiling from the sea

"You're awake?" Ethan's voice was low and close. I turned my head slowly and saw him

He had stubble on his face and looked exhausted. I had no idea how long I'd been asleep. As I reached out for my phone, Erhan grabbed my

"Don't move. You're getting an TV," he said. It was then that I noticed the TV bags hanging by the window.

"How long was out?" asked. My throat hurt so much that it felt like I'd swallowed something sharp.

Ethan helped me sit up and gave me a glass of water. "You've been asleep for a whole day and night, and you've had a fever for just as long"

I drank a bit of water and lay back down. "Are we still on the ship?"

"Yeah," Ethan sad, tucking the blanket around me. "Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."

Inodded, and Ethan went out to get some food.

After Ethan left the room, I sat up and grabbed my phone from the bedside table. I texted Lyla to ask where Elene was. She quickly replied that Elene was outside playing in the water with a young guy Right after that, my phone rang. Lyla's voice came through, sounding excited.

"Eve, you're awake! Ethan is being so bossy. He told me I was too noisy and said I couldn't come to your room. He just wants to keep you all to himself!"

I realized that Ethan must have been taking care of me all this time.

"Wait for me, Eve. I'll be back soon," Lyla said before hanging up

Just then, Ethan walked in carrying a bowl of soup. I looked up at him, feeling a bit confused. He sat down next to me and held up a spoonful of soup. "The doctor said you should eat something light. Let's start with some soup," he said. He blew on the spoonful of soup to reel it dows and brought it to my lips. I looked at him, wanting to say something but couldn't figure out what to say.

After eating half the bowl of soup, I couldn't eat anymore. Ethan didn't insist. He just wiped my hands with a wet cloth and took the leftover food away.

I took a deep breath, pulled out the IV needle from my hand, and gotout of bed.

Elene's room was at the end of the hallway. I went in and found the white pills in a clear bag inside her suitcase. I swapped it with the vitamins I had prepared.

Jest as 1 was leaving Elene's room, I heard footsteps. I hurried and accidentally bumped into Ethan. He grabbed my shoulders to steady me. I looked up at him, gripping the sealed bag tightly.

"Where have you been?" he asked, his voice calm but serious

"L," I started, trying to think of a reason.

Before could explain, than took the hand holding the sealed bag and lifted it up.
