It's been a long time since you've had a break, yes, having to go to university and work hard to get a career as a reporter, while also having to make a documentary about Echo, the almost ghost town, it's best to turn ours into a trip with friends, to lighten the load on our shoulders a bit.
The first few days went well, but you couldn't deny how Leo, your ex, was subtly being kinder and more protective of you than of the others, and you already knew why. This might bother you, and Leo noticed it too, until he finally mustered the courage to talk.
"...Hey, Chula. Do you... Do you have a moment?"
Leo's voice sounded low and somewhat awkward. He scratched the back of his head, hoping you would agree to a conversation. (And he was the only one who noticed you left the hotel room to get some fresh air, so he followed you.)
