But why would he be so nice to her if they aren’t a couple? Is Camille’s love for him unrequited? Is
there any other reason behind this? I thought.
After a flight of about twenty hours, we finally landed at Los Angeles International Airport. While Eric
and Camille left, Jenny and I transferred to Oakland. Camille dismissed us with a wave and a smile,
while Eric dismissed us in a rare show of courtesy. “Have a good trip.”
Watching them go, Jenny and I rested before boarding the flight to Oakland. The distance to our
destination wasn’t that long, so we only spent half an hour on the flight. Once we arrived at the airport,
we took a taxi to the hotel.

So Jenny and I looked around the garden as we took pictures of it. After returning to the hotel, I went

statement. “I thought you would stay a few more days. Why not, since it has a nice beach?”
“I will consider this after I finish my tasks, as I prefer it that way.” I didn’t feel sorry for Oakland, so I’d
rather go visit the High Line in
New York if not for Eric’s prior arrangement.
“Fine, but stay longer in London.” Eric’s indifference made me doubt he would do anything.
