“Ladies and gentlemen, we are now arriving at Seamarsh. Please remain seated until…”
Suddenly, a voice sounded from speaker.
The sound jarred Stella from her slumber.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she realized that she was leaning to the side.
She looked up only to be greeted with Matthew’s smiling face.
She quickly sat up and leaned back. Tucking her bangs behind her ears in embarrassment, she said, “I’m sorry about that, Mr. Clark. I was fast asleep. Sorry…”
She kept apologizing, her face full of panic.
Matthew didn’t seem to care. He shrugged it off by saying, “It’s nothing. The doors are open now. Let’s go.”
The second he stood up, he realized that his arm was numb. Part of his neck, back, and shoulders were now stiff because he had been in the same position for a long time. He staggered a little.
Worried, Stella Leaped to her feet and helped him stand upright.
“Are you okay? How about you have a rest first?”

She had used her boss as a cushion, and now he wasn’t doing too well.
How silly of her!
Matthew looked calm.
He shook his head.
“I’m fine. Thanks for convincing me to travel by train today. It was a remarkable experience.”
After saying that, he took the lead to get off the train.
Stella was beyond relieved that he wasn’t mad at her. She followed him closely.
Fernando’s car was already waiting outside by the time they walked out of the train station.
“I can give you” Matthew was just about to offer Stella a ride when she suddenly interrupted him.
