#28: Found his diary under his bed...

He was already awake and in the shower when she woke up. She reached over for her bottle of water, but accidentally knocked it over and it rolled under the bed. She reached under to get it, but her had rested on a surface that was smooth and hard. She wrapped her hand around it and pulled it out from under his bed. It looked like a journal. IT had his name, Ethan A. James, engraved on the lower right corner of the journal. She was tempted to open it, but before she did, she realized that the shower had stopped. Ethan would probably be coming back any minute. She quickly got back under the covers and pretended tha she was asleep. He came in wearing pants but no shirt. As he walked across the room, she saw big scars on his back. She had never noticed them before. She closed her eyes and he kissed her on the forehead before waking out of the room. She quickly sat up and opened the journal. Once she started reading it, she realized it was his childhood journal. She read about things that she didn't know about his past and wondered why he had never told her about those things. The longer she sat there, the more she felt that the man she loved was a mystery to her.
