I drop my bag on the floor and relaxed on my door just to catch a breath.What just happened? Oh my goodness! What does he think of me now? My whole body shivered again as I recalled how he held me tightly there in his car. I could still feel his touch on my body and the taste of his lip on mine.I brought my hand to my lip and touch it.Arrgh!!!

Sophia Censatio"This is not about your relationship with someone else, I don't care about that but, you lied to me, Jonathan. You made me look like a fool and for that, I'm never going to forgive you. I trusted you with my whole heart and treated you like a friend but you betrayed my trust in you. Now, you want me to believe that you're genuine? What if, there's something more you're hiding from me? I can't just find it in me to believe you. Just give me some time... I can't face you right now." I said."Does that mean, you will give me a chance?.""What chance are you talking about?" I questioned, confused. "You just said to give you some time," He said. "I do not understand what you're talking about but, just give me enough time to think about the whole thing. You want me to believe every word that comes out from you but, I don't think now is the right to do that. I'm still upset at you." I said and the idiot's face lit up all of a sudden.

Beautiful was an understatement until we go in and I saw the interior. It was so beautiful and classy.I wonder if this is a hotel or a house. I look around the places again and keep admiring them.
