Jonas did not want to overthink. The incident at the coast in Horington and the many instances they interacted were undoubtedly a blow to him. As someone who wanted to give up on her, he should learn to ignore whatever emotions he had because of her.
“Give it to me. The steps are too high. You won't be able to carry it over.”
Lowering his eyes indifferently, he then carried the suitcase easily up the step. Megan followed behind him with complicated emotions, walking silently as she did not know what to say.
After a while, when everyone had finished arranging their things and equipment, the crew encouraged Megan to have lunch with Jonas to build their relationship. Regardless of whether the relationship was real or fake, the new season must not turn out worse than the previous one.
Helpless, Megan felt burdened by the trust that every staff member put in her.
I've just interacted with him mere minutes ago, and now, I have to look for him again. I really don't know what he'll think of me.
She sighed and shook her head, forcing herself to knock on his door.
Knock, knock, knock.
All was silent, the door that was supposed to be locked creaked open slightly, startling Megan. She looked down and found the door unlatched.
“What's going on?”
Confused about the situation, she frowned and looked inside the room but did not see anyone.
Did he went out? But the yard door wasn't open just now.
With a doubtful gaze, she stood at his door for a long time. Then, making up her mind, she pushed the door that was left ajar.
When she entered, she looked around the room curiously, her steps light and careful. She called out Jonas' name from time to time.
