Chapter Twenty-Four

Four Weeks Later

Eva yawned for the second time as she put away her camera. The dark room had become her own for the last few weeks, and she was not going to be sorry to see the back of it. It was cramped and made her feel slightly claustrophobic. With a sigh she turned and surveyed the drying pictures. She had taken so many photos she wasn't sure which ones were going to go into the magazine. She would have to come back in the morning and finalize everything before they docked in Athens.

Eva smiled at a photo of Zoe hanging over the rail. The wind had tousled her long red hair, giving her an impish look. She couldn't believe Zoe was twenty-two years old. It seemed like yesterday when she had met the young, fresh-faced teenager. Now she was going back to where it all began. Not the happiest of places, but the whole trip was one huge step down the emotional pain that was part of her past life.

“Just a few weeks and you will be rid of it. Just endure for a few more weeks,” Eva said, and turned off the light.

She shut the cabin door and pulled her jacket around her. The weather had taken an unseasonably cool feel and the warm nights outside on the deck were long past. Rain and cold weather, she smiled, just what she liked.

It was late in the evening, and she had promised Zoe she would be back to their cabin before midnight. She had spent the last few days trying to get all the photos developed. That required spending long hours in the dark room. She glanced at her watch, which read eleven-thirty, and smiled. She was rather pleased with herself that she had managed to finish everything before midnight.

Dr. Salvatore leaned against the railing.

“Are you trying to catch a cold?” Eva asked as she came up beside him.

Dr. Salvatore laughed and shook his head. “Guten nacht.”

“Buona sera,” Eva replied in Italian.

They had developed quite a rapport while Dr. Salvatore taught Zoe his technique on her over the course of the last few weeks. He was supportive, and taught with great skill and patience. One of the nicest side benefits was the massages Zoe gave her.

“No, not trying to catch a cold.” He turned to Eva. “And how is Miss Haralambos tonight?”

“Very tired,” Eva replied. “I want to go to sleep.”

Dr. Salvatore nodded. “You've been working long hours.”

“I've been trying to finish up.” Eva rubbed the back of her neck.

“How's your back?”

Eva grinned. “I haven't had any problems thanks to you.”

“Ah.” Dr. Salvatore chuckled. “Thanks to Zoe. She's been giving you the massages. She is a good student. So where to from here?”

“Athens, Larissa, and then Berlin,” Eva replied. “Are you staying in Athens?”

“Yes. I have some things I need to do,” Dr. Salvatore said with a pensive expression.

“Something wrong?” Eva asked.

“No, not really. I have some friends I need to meet, and then go to Genova. I have an apartment I need to sell and then go back to Australia,” Dr.
