"Nelson, what are you doing?" Dorry demanded angrily, trying to push me away, but I held her tightly. I pulled her even closer, burying my face into the crook of her neck.

"What the—let go of me!"

"Shhh..." I hushed her again, pressing my index finger to her lips. She immediately grabbed my hand, threw it aside forcefully, and glared at me.

"You’re insane!"

"Don't be so loud... Ouch..." I groaned, reluctantly letting her go. My stomach throbbed from the sharp elbow she’d jabbed into me. She didn’t even give me a chance to finish what I was saying.

I had been finding ways to keep her in my arms, even just for a while, even just for tonight. But no, Dorry wasn’t one to make things easy for me.

“You really thought you’d get away with that, didn’t you?” she said, now fully facing me and jabbing her finger at me as she put some distance between us.

I scratched my head, flashing her a sheepish grin. She wasn’t wrong—I had thought I could get away with sneaking in a little closeness. I thoug

    He wiped away my tears, gently cupping my cheeks in his hands."I'm sorry, I'm so sorry... it won't happen again!"With my eyes shut tightly, I removed his hands from my face. "Let me breathe first. Just... leave me alone for now." I opened the door and walked out without looking back.There was nowhere else to go—no place to hide—except for the stairs leading up to the second floor of the shop.There, I poured out all my anger and heartbreak. I didn’t care if my eyes swelled from crying; I just needed to let everything out.The entire afternoon at work passed in a dull haze. Lenny didn’t ask any questions. The puffiness of my eyes spoke for itself, and she probably already knew the reason, though she had no idea I’d been hurt physically, too.I stayed silent as I rode in Romeo’s car. Despite what happened earlier, he insisted on driving me home. He kept stealing glances at me, sighing again and again. I could feel the regret radiating off him.He reached out and took my hand, but I

    My temper flared even more when I heard him laugh. I shot him a glare. "You think this is funny?!" I asked, irritated.He took my hand and placed it on the handle of the paper bag, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. I snatched it from him."I told you..." he started, but didn’t finish. He leaned in as if to kiss me, but I quickly pressed my palm against his lips."Told you what?!" I asked through gritted teeth.He grasped the hand I had over his mouth, his grin widening. "That... you're jealous..." he said, still holding my hand against his lips.He always got thrilled whenever I got jealous. Me? I couldn’t feel the same excitement whenever he got jealous. I didn’t even have the strength to smile. All I felt was fear, anxiety, and dread.I yanked my hand away and rolled my eyes at him. "I'm heading out!" I snapped, yanking the door open with a huff.Quickly, I composed my face before stepping outside to the two women, who were wondering why I’d taken so long."Roselyn, her

    "What was that about?" I muttered, confused by Diego’s sudden actions, but I shrugged it off.By ten in the evening, our drunken classmates had started heading home. Some were picked up, while others booked a ride.I was already outside the pizza house, waiting with my friends for their rides to arrive."Girls, I’m leaving first," I said as I spotted Romeo’s car approaching."Take care, Vianna May," they chorused.I walked to the roadside and waited for Romeo to pull over so I could quickly get in. I was tired. I just wanted to go home and rest.But even with my exhaustion, a smile stayed on my lips as I waited for my Romeo’s car to stop."Vi..."I turned sharply when I heard Diego call my name."You forgot this," he said, handing me my purse."Thank you," I stammered, quickly shifting my gaze back to Romeo.The car window was already rolled down, and Romeo was leaning out, staring hard.I hurried into the car without even saying goodbye to Diego. Romeo’s face had already soured."Goo

    My mouth fell open, and I stared at him. Romeo was the first to look away, his enthusiasm fading even more.“Maybe,” I said. “Love, it’s not a date—it’s just a reunion. There’ll be a lot of us there. Please, love, say yes.” I pleaded sweetly.I didn’t expect him to remember Diego’s name. He didn’t seem to care when we ran into each other at the hotel—but apparently, it stuck in his mind.“I’ll drop you off and pick you up,” he finally said, and my heart leapt with joy.I marched toward him, sat on his lap, wrapped my arms around his neck, and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.“Thank you, love,” I said, beaming.“I love you,” he replied, his eyes locked on mine.But I immediately stood when I felt his manhood press against my backside. I awkwardly returned to the chair with a sheepish grin.He smirked slightly, though the weariness on his face was still visible.“Come on, love. Eat now so you can rest—and I can leave soon,” I said, forcing a smile.Good grief. Even when his whole body

    Romeo’s words haunted me—what he said about entering my “den.” It felt like he was implying something deeper… like he was ready to propose. Our dream of building a life—a family filled with love and warmth like the one he came from—was finally within reach.“Girl, spaced out much?” Lenny snapped me out of my thoughts.I gave her a soft smile.“Looks like you’ve tasted something…” she teased, poking my side with a mischievous grin.“You’re so annoying, Lenny. Can’t you think of something more wholesome? I’m just happy, okay? In love. Must you lace it with your dirty thoughts?” I rolled my eyes. She only laughed harder.“How was the celebration? Did he propose? Is that why you’re floating on clouds?” she asked while rearranging some displays.“Not yet. But I can feel it’s coming soon.” I leaned my elbows on the glass shelf and rested my cheek in my palm.“You’ve been saying that for months now. It’s almost been a year, and you’re still waiting. You better watch out—you might end up like

    "Sweetheart, enjoy," Mom Edna called as a parting remark.I waved at her, watching the car drive away.
