Voices, deliberately hushed, followed.
“Elena, make sure not to make any noise when you come in!”
“It’s so late; that blind woman must already be asleep. No need to be so cautious!”
As I stepped out of the bathroom, Willy pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing me, he looked visibly uneasy. "Honey, you're still awake?"
I clenched my fingertips tightly, forcing a calm facade and widened my blank, sightless eyes. "I napped too long this afternoon, so I’m not tired!"
Elena clung to Willy’s arm affectionately, deliberately rising on tiptoe to bite his Adam’s apple and kiss the corner of his lips while he spoke.
Willy, his breathing quickening, couldn’t resist. He picked her up and set her on the shoe cabinet, silently lifting her skirt.
Elena looked over Willy’s shoulder at me, her eyes filled with smugness and disdain.
She whispered softly into Willy's ear, "This is so thrilling, I love it! We've never tried doing it in front of her before..."
Willy quickly covered her mouth, signaling her to keep quiet.
The two of them kissed fervently, as if performing a silent play.
