"Is everything okay?" Charlotte's voice echoed from behind the door. Startled, both women quickly distanced themselves, smoothing out their clothes with swift gestures. After exchanging a final glance, Meena assured Charlotte, "Yes, Char, sorry about that. We're coming out now!" With that, they opened the door.

"Hey! We got a little carried away talking," Aoom chimed in. "Well, I'm heading back to my condo to read over some lines," she added, bidding farewell to both girls. Aoom and Meena were scheduled to return to the set the day after tomorrow. This marked Meena's first day back to work since the incident, adding an extra layer of anticipation to the upcoming shoot.

As Meena and Aoom exchanged goodbyes, Charlotte eyed Meena with a suspicious expression. Meena, sensing the scrutiny, simply shrugged, feigning innocence. Charlotte wasn't convinced.

"She didn't even finish the game," Charlotte observed, her suspicion evident in her tone. Meena, maintaining her nonchalant demeanor, replied, "Oh, you know how it is, Char. Time flies when you're catching up."

Charlotte, still not entirely satisfied, raised an eyebrow. "It's late already," Meena interjected, checking the time on her phone. "You should stay and get some rest." Meena's attempt to divert Charlotte's attention seemed to work, at least for the moment. Charlotte hesitated, then sighed, acknowledging the late hour.

"Alright, fine," Charlotte conceded, her suspicion still lingering. "But we're resuming this conversation soon." Meena, with a genuine smile, replied, "Absolutely, Char. Get a good night's sleep, and we'll pick up where we left off. Promise!" With that assurance, both girls decided to call it a night.

Charlotte opted to stay in the guest room, leaving Meena to retreat to her own room. As the door closed behind them, the lingering tension seemed to dissipate, at least for the moment. Meena, lying in bed, couldn't help but reflect on today's events.

Back at her condo, Aoom found herself restless. Alone in her living space, thoughts raced through her mind. "What would've happened if Charlotte hadn't interrupted?" Aoom pondered, replaying the moments in her mind. This was precisely why she wanted to distance herself in the first place, and now, unexpectedly, she found herself sinking deeper.

This internal struggle tugged at Aoom. The irony wasn't lost on her – the very thing she had been avoiding now beckoned, and she wanted it. What made it more intense was the raw truth that she desired it, and the interruption had been the only thing preventing her from taking that step.

She found herself at a loss, unsure of how she could meet the gaze of the other women. Their eyes had been full of desire and lust just moments ago, and the lingering intimacy left her feeling vulnerable. The memory of Meena's captivating look sent a palpable current through her core, awakening desires that she wasn't quite ready to confront.

"No, this is wrong, this is so wrong," she repeated to herself, desperately attempting to calm the whirlwind of emotions swirling inside her. Instead, her thoughts drifted further, leading her to take a quick shower, hoping the cascade of water would wash away the lingering sensations.

Emerging from the shower, the water droplets glistening on her skin, Aoom retreated to the comfort of her bed. With her eyes closed, Aoom longed to sleep and get some rest, but her mind had other plans. However, her restless mind betrayed her, immediately conjuring tantalizing images of Meena's face, etched with a delicate balance of arousal and vulnerability, when she had her against the sink.

She crossed and squeezed her legs together under her sheets, Aoom couldn't help but feel a rush of arousal. She closed her eyes, trying to block out the memories of her and Meena's intimate moment. But it was like a vicious cycle - the more she tried to suppress her desires, the more they consumed her.
