“I'll grab the clothes. You should take a warm shower first.” Thalassa rummaged through their suitcase-it was packed with a few changes of clothes for the trip.
She handed a set to Evelyn and waited outside while her mother showered, After a while, Evelyn emerged, and it was Thalassa’s turn.
Exiting the steamy bathroom, Thalassa found Evelyn sitting on the bed, her eyes glazed over, lost in thought, devoid of their usual spark.
Thalassa dreaded seeing her mother like this. She sat beside her and asked softly, “Mom, what's on your mind?” Evelyn snapped back to reality and glanced at Thalassa. “I'm thinking about Lysander.” Thalassa waited for her to continue.
“Why would someone of his stature leap into the water to save me? He got completely 1/2 08:31 drenched. He must have done it for you. He's kind to those around you, yet he won't marry you.” The thought weighed heavily on Evelyn's heart.
Thalassa felt a pang in her chest at her mother’s words, her gaze dropping slightly.

She had given up on that a long tago.
And now, even if Lysander wanted to marry her, she wouldn't accept.

Understanding her mother’s hesitation, Thalassa stood up, walked over to the nightstand and picked up the phone to call the front desk.
“Ill call the front desk to have them change the sheets,” she said while waiting for the call to connect.
Soon enough, someone answered. Thalassa said, “This is room 201. Could we get a change of sheets, please?” “I apologize, but our standard policy is to change sheets in the morning at nine. We've already done so today.” the front desk replied.
Thalassa was surprised. She hadn't expected a refusal.
“Our sheets are wet. Besides, didn’t you change them outside of the usual schedule just yesterday?” she inquired, a hint of confusion in her voice.
