~{EMELDA'S POV}~
*
The next day, I got ready to have breakfast even when I didn't have the appetite.
My face was a bit dull and Antonia took note of it but made no comment. And once I was all set, I was led to my door and the moment it was pulled open and I was about to step out, my steps faltered when I found Smith standing outside my room with a big smile.
Just seeing him seemed to have brightened my mood and I nearly staggered at his beauty. At this point I was certain he would shine more than me but I didn't bother about it.
"What a sight to behold this beautiful morning," he said and carefully took my hand in his.
And the moment our hands touched, I felt a spark. It was effective and my mood instantly lifted.
"Are you alright, my love. You seem a bit dull. Did something happen?" He worriedly asked as he carefully placed a hand on my cheek and forehead to be sure I was alright.
"I'm fine," I lied.
