The Wrong Woman

"I don't want to go in. I just want to go home," Sienna said. She felt too uneasy to enter Daniel's house.

Reluctantly, Daniel agreed to take her back. During the ride home, they exchanged contact information to keep in touch.

As soon as they arrived, Sienna quickly exited the car and hurried upstairs, almost as if she was running away.

Daniel stepped out of the car, feeling a weight in his chest as he watched Sienna rush off. He understood her need for space and decided to give her time to adjust.

After all, this was just the beginning, and rushing things wouldn't be good for either of them.

Sienna resided in a five-story, old apartment building. Its age was evident, probably around 50 or 60 years old.

Daniel strolled through the property, checking the fire hydrant's functionality. Then, he turned his attention to the weathered electrical box affixed to the wall and surveyed the nearby shops.

He saw a few hair salons in the alley next to the building. They looked open for business, judging by their storefronts and interior decor.

However, Daniel noticed something strange. No hairdressing tools were found on the counters, and the floors were spotless, with no cut hair anywhere. Plus, the salons were tucked away deep in the alley.

He pulled out his phone, snapped a photo, and sent it to his colleagues in other departments with a message. "Whenever you're free, swing by and inspect this."

Afterward, Daniel continued to scout the area for any potential security risks.

As he ventured further, he encountered more and more peculiar shops. He even noticed a woman sitting on a bench outside one, batting her eyelashes and saying, "Hey handsome, want to hang out?" Daniel sighed and walked away. The narrow alleys among the aging residential buildings were affordable to rent, secluded, and ideal for illicit activities like this. Such places drew in unsavory characters. Feeling unsettled, Daniel got into his car and drove away.

Back at home, Sienna hid under her covers, her mind swirling.

She had only intended to meet a friend for coffee and do some writing, but she found herself returning home with a new status-someone's girlfriend.

And not just anyone's, but Daniel's-the man she admired.

Sienna blushed and giggled shyly as she thought about the kiss they shared. She felt a jumble of emotions-happiness, worry, and conflicting feelings that made her feel like she was losing her mind. Wrapped snugly in her blanket, she rolled around on her bed, feeling foolish. "I must be going crazy! Crazy!"

Sienna sat up straight and patted her cheeks to regain her composure. Determinedly, she mumbled, "Pull yourself together and focus. I need to commit to this relationship."

Later, she turned on her laptop. Since she didn't have much experience with romantic relationships, she searched online for tips on "How to be a good girlfriend."

Respect your boyfriend's privacy.

Sienna earnestly read through the tips, then took screenshots and saved them before delving further into her search for dating advice.

She had never put in so much effort before, not even during her days in school. Now, as an adult, she was eager to learn about dating.

She was worried that Daniel might find her boring because she hadn't dated much. His direct way of showing affection had left her unsure of how to react.

She understood that if she didn't take the initiative to learn more about dating now, she might miss out on chances to bond with him in the future.

Her thoughts inevitably drifted back

to Daniel, and her cheeks flushed Resting her chin in her hands, she gazed out the window at the deep blue sky adorned with clusters of clouds.

A sweet smile spread across her face as she marveled at its beauty.

However, over the next couple of days, Sienna's smile vanished. Daniel hadn't visited or reached out to her no messages, no calls. She began to fear he had forgotten about their relationship. S

She lounged on the couch at home, idly munching on an apple. Her attention was absorbed by the talk show airing on TV, her face devoid of any hint of a smile.

Felix stepped out of his room and suggested, "Sienna, why don't we head to the neighboring town to catch a glimpse of the filming? There are quite a few celebrities there."
