Angel was having her ice cream and walking by the sidewalk with Vina trying to hold her hand. But as always, Angel was in a cheerful mood and almost jumping all the way.But then she got bumped into a young man. "Watch out." Angel said angrily as the ice cream was dropped from her hold.The young man she bumped into stopped in his track hearing the voice of a little girl. He turned only to find the little girl glaring at her. She didn't look scary anyway but cute. She seemed so cute to him that he got staring at her. "You dropped my ice cream and you ruined my dress as well." Angel complained looking at the ice cream fallen on the sidewalk and then pointing at her dress where it was stained. "I am sorry, baby girl. I didn't mean to. It was an accident. I am sorry." The young man apologised involuntarily."It's not okay." Angel pouted. "Angel, it’s okay baby. He didn’t do it willingly and said sorry, right?" Seeing Angel like this, Vina tried to handle the matter as she took out so
It took Shane a few days to finish his work in Manhattan and today he was supposed to go back to his town. But when the principal of the Green Valley school requested him to visit the school the next day at the parents' day programme, he couldn’t refuse. It had been years since he had visited the school being the trustee of the school board. The next day when he went to the school, a painting competition was going on. The little children were asked to draw something for their parents.After talking to the teachers, Shane was requested to visit the children in the hall room who were busy in drawing.Shane didn’t refuse and walked in the hall room among the children who were engrossed in their canvas. The children busy with colours and pouring their imagination on the canvas was making him visit his childhood.He was also like that. He was so praised for his paintings from his childhood days and he wanted to follow his dream of being a painter till the very end. But his circumstances
Lilian walked ahead dreading the things were going to be happened. Angel was in Shane's hold! How in the world did this happen? She couldn’t be more confused.But more than getting her confusion cleared, she needed to have Angel in her arms first. For more than she was confused, she was frightened. Lilian walked closer to them but focused on Angel anyway, "What happened, Angel? Are you okay?" As much as she knew Angel wasn’t the type of girl to allow just anyone to take her in arms. And her allowing Shane to take her in his arms was indicating nothing but panicking her."Yes, mom. I am fine." Angel said with a smile but then with her classmates watching them, she added, "See, dad came to my school with me." Lilian's eyes widened as she turned to Shane."What?" Lilian voiced out, her voice laced with mixed emotions. Before things got even more confusing, Shane turned to the principal and spoke up, "Excuse us." and then walked towards the exit of the hall room and Lilian could only
As Shane hopped in the car after finishing his activities in the school, the driver revved the engine.As he looked outside of the glass and found a little girl walking by the sidewalk holding a young man's hand, his mind replayed his time with Angel and a smile adorned his face on its own.But Lilian not recognizing him bothered him.He kept his head on the headboard, his eyes closed. His mind was still buzzing with questions and demanding some answers.Did Lilian really not recognize him? How come?His phone rang off pulling him out of his thoughts.He took out the phone thinking who could be it only to find it was Willow. As he answered the call, a cute baby voice came, "Uncle Shane, I came to meet you but Granny said you are out of town." It was Rose, Aiden and Willow's daughter. Her voice complaining and Shane could imagine her pouting.Shane replied, "I had a meeting to attend baby.""Okay. When are you coming back?" Rose asked.Shane couldn’t help but smile as he replied, "I w
Sitting by the window, Shane was watching the rain. He was supposed to take the flight tonight and get back to his town, his home. But the weather was just worsening with time and somehow he was feeling as if it was an indication for him not to leave from here.Taking a warm shower, he tried to get some sleep but sleep didn’t seem to grace him tonight as well. He wanted to take his usual sleeping pills but found the container empty. He knew he could have ordered Mack and he would have managed it anyhow but for some reason, he didn’t.So, he left the bed and settled on the couch by the window. As he kept watching the rain, the last six years came back haunting him.After Lilian left, he searched for her everywhere. Not that he started searching for her immediately though. Because he was angry with her.When he thought of expressing his feelings for her and asking for a chance to start a new life together, he saw her with Simon at the park.They were sitting on a bench, talking smilingl
As much as Shane wanted to have a talk like just a simple talk with Lilian, he could feel it wasn’t going to happen. Maybe he should also stop. Maybe she had really forgotten him or just didn’t want to talk to him and that’s why she was playing strangers. Shane sighed as he headed for his penthouse. Walking now wouldn’t do any good to him now he knew for sure. ~~ It was getting late at night. Lilian tossed on the bed not being able to sleep. She knew she had the chance to come clean with Shane but she was afraid of his reaction. And now as she had lied to him already about being married, she wanted to keep it that way. Maybe that's the only way to keep Angel with her.Lilian concluded in her mind. She turned to Angel who was sleeping peacefully beside her and held her frame securely. No way she was going to lose her. She wouldn’t be able to live without her. Lilian thought. ~~ It was early in the morning when Shane opened his eyes after having a dream. It wasn’t a dream actually.
With a sudden realization dawned upon Shane, he left from there without looking behind for once. He saw the door getting opened through the window though when he settled inside the car. Without bothering, he revved the engine and drove away. Getting back to his penthouse, he walked frantically in the living room. He wasn't going to leave from there but knowing Lilian, he didn't want to take the chance. Nor did he want to argue over Angel in front of her.So, he took a prompt decision of getting confirmed by himself first before he would get to question Lilian.He just hoped Angel would attend school the next day. And when she did, he went on with his plan. Taking Angel out of the class wouldn't be any problem.On his order, the principal declared the day as a field day for Angel's class.Hearing the teacher, Angel couldn't be happier thinking she would be able to visit a place, play with her friends."Hi, Daddy." Angel smiled and waved her little hand finding Shane standing in the m
"Shane, I am sorry. But_" Lilian tried to come up with something, "After Aiden and Willow''s wedding, I wanted to talk about that night and went to find you but you weren’t there. So, I thought you were just trying to avoid me and_""You can't just assume on your own. I had a meeting to attend. Leave that. Why didn’t you tell me when you found out about your pregnancy? Didn’t I had the right to know?" Shane asked, his voice yelling. "This was an accidental pregnancy. I don’t even remember our time together from that night let alone how did this happen. I didn’t know how you would have reacted knowing this. I didn’t want you to blame me about trying to trap you and all. Knowing your granny, I didn’t want to be in a forced relationship. ""How did you know I would have blamed you?""Because like others, you wanted me to be gone from there as well. I couldn’t be selfish and make you sign up for this unwanted responsibility.""You were just thinking on your own. I would never thought like
