"You're going to the airport to meet him?" Hadley dropped the shopping bag carelessly on the counter as she realized what she had heard Serena say.She blinked more than twice trying to process the information. Serena sat up on the bed and twitched her shoulders, "It's the least I can do for him. I feel like I owe him at least, he was nice to me throughout my stay there. Besides, the wristwatch looks pretty expensive. I don't think he's going to let go of it easily."Hadley squeezed her lips into a small pout, scrutinizing the situation. "I just hope he's not playing games with you."Serena thought of it again, but there was nothing to think about. A part of her wanted to see him again. And if this was her only chance of seeing him again, maybe she would steal one last kiss. God, she should have kissed him at the airport.She went to bed thinking of all the possible outcomes of her meeting with Jaxon. It took a lot before she could concentrate on all the work she had to do for her ap

Chapter Twenty-two
It was day three of going to the airport to pass time. She wondered if there were other people like her there, who just came to watch and go. She had gotten teary a few times watching scenes of people kissing their family goodbye.Now she just smiled at the scenes and said, "oh well, that's life." A part of her believed she could meet Jaxon here one day and she would stroll to the arrival terminal and lurk around. She wondered if she came off as creepy. Was there anyone who had noticed her already? She didn't want to come off as a suspect for anything shady. Besides, she dressed decently, so she didn't think anyone would mistake her for a thief or the like.The spot where she sat the previous day was free, she made a mental note to sit there again since she loved the view it gave of the planes leaving the airport and she could still "aww" at a few goodbye scenes.She went to get a Coke and Cheetos from a mini-mart and got back to the spot where she planned on sitting. A bag pack was

She was sitting at the spot he took his bag from. She saw him before he reached her.He took off his cap and scratched his head as he stood above her. She looked up from her phone and dropped the soda can she had been sipping from."That's funny and cute." She smiled, the lights in the area made her milk-brown eyes glow, and it accentuated the highlights of her caramel-brown hair. She was the cute one."I know, I think I'm still one of those guys living the high school life in their heads." He said.Serena chuckled, " You want to sit?" She rubbed the small space on the metal chair."If you can share?" Melvin twitched his shoulders.She moved a bit for him to sit. Somehow, she'd assumed she'd feel currents, maybe sparks, or butterflies swarming her belly with the kind of proximity she now had with him. Their arms were brushing each other and she felt calm, cool, and collected, no butterflies, nothing to make her think she might erase any feelings she had for a partially non-existent J

Chapter Twenty-four
It was early in the afternoon and Serena had just woken up from a nap. She stared into space with her eyes half-closed. She contemplated checking her mail or her social media messages. She grabbed her phone and decided to check her mail, but the floating notification on her lockscreen caught her attention. It was an Instagram notification; jax_sawyer followed you. She stared at the notification and grinded her teeth, then she swiped it off and dropped her phone on the bed. She stood up and made for the kitchen, then another thought came to her head. What if he sent a message?She retreated to the bed, but the growing persistent tough girl in her took her legs back to the kitchen counter. What could she do to keep herself busy? She looked round the kitchen and her eyes caught the food container Hadley had left the pancakes in. She put it in the microwave and counted the number of utensils in the kitchen while it warmed up. She got the pancakes out of the microwave after a few minut

Chapter Twenty-five
"Hey" it was a masculine voice. It seemed distant with her mind so far away from her immediate surroundings, but it was familiar."Serena, Serena" a hand waved in front of her. She looked up to see Melvin standing in front of her.Her eyes darted sideways wondering if she was at the airport or something. Her eyebrows furrowed,why was he here? Seeing that she had been sitting at a bus stop, he must be on his way to the airport."Hey Melvin, what's up?" She gave him a wry smile."I'm good, running a few errands here and there," he moved his head sideways "here and there". She noticed he was holding a small box."You run delivery services too?" He wasn't wearing his T&M uniform though, he was wearing a yellow and white check short-sleeved button down shirt and brown cargo pants, so she wondered if her question was rude. Why did she always feel rude to him? He was just like every regular person that worked at a store and as long as they were happy with it, it wasn't disrespectful to ask

Chapter Twenty-six
Hadley was at the restaurant, with her dark hair packed in a bun and a yellow apron with Creamhood written in red cursive letters did well to cover her legs that were clad in denim shorts, only stopping halfway down her calves.The side of the establishment that served as a restaurant had an outdoor scenery with wooden benches and tables. With each spot having a shade to protect the customers from the sunlight. The trees and plants around also added to the beautiful scenery.There were just about twelve tables which meant fewer customers at a time, but that was the point of it all. They wanted the customers to have a quiet place to eat, not a noisy dining room. The restaurant area wasn't busy at the moment. Only a table showed that someone just had a meal. They already left."Oh my!" Hadley's hands went to her mouth as she saw Serena with a guy in the restaurant. She suspected at once that he was Melvin. "You didn't tell me you were coming.""Hi Hadley!" Serena rolled her eyes at her,

There was no answer. They had their lunch silently and Frank left before they were done. Serena bit and licked and lips while looking at Hadley from the corner of her eyes. She had created a mess.She didn't expect Hadley to behave the way she did. She had even assumed she'd be a catalyst to whatever was going on between them."I feel bad, I acted stupidly today " Serena spoke to Melvin as they left Creamhood.Melvin sighed and nodded, "I kind of understand, but I wasn't expecting her to go silent, you weren't, right?" Serena nodded and heaved a deep breath. "You should just talk to her when you get home, I'm sure she's having a bad day already," said Melvin."With the mood we left her in, Mrs. Puckett would regret letting us have lunch." "Don't worry yourself too much, just don't blame her for anything. You'll talk to her when you get home. I'm sure she's a tough woman too. She'll make it through the day.""My ass might not make it till tomorrow. She's going to give me a cold shou

Chapter Twenty-eight
There were three pictures on the post. The first one was of him on the beach, one which was not familiar to Serena. He was wearing a white beach shorts with blue leaf prints. He had an amazing sunset behind him and it looked like he was going to run away from the camera. Whoever took the photo had gotten him just in time, they captured his shy smile and his hand raises forward in an attempt to block his face.It was a happy picture, a happy moment and it reminded Serena of their time at the beach. The next slide was what made her heart sting. A picture of him and a girl in sky blue mini beach dress.Jaxon and the blonde girl were facing the beach and hugging each other, so Serena couldn't see her face. Their closeness irritated her, it pissed her off, it burnt her heart. What else could she get from being interested in a guy like Jaxon? Constant heartaches, because he was a women's man!The last photo was a picture of the beach sand. Not just the beach sand, a heart was drawn on it a

Chapter Twenty- nine
Melvin had called Serena the previous night and confirmed that she was cool with Hadley. He was interested in her reason for not saying anything to Frank at lunch, but Serena told him, it was nothing they could handle."Do you want to go see a movie, this time we'll go alone," Melvin suggested.A movie alone, Serena thought. The way he said it, it felt like she had caused a lot of trouble having lunch with the others that afternoon."Yeah, I have a lot of time on my hands, I guess I'm up for anything that doesn't involve me spending my money." She joked, even if it was demeaning to her. She had to make it clear that it was on him."Of course, it's all on me. So that's a date. Should I pick you up on Friday?" said Melvin with triumph in his voice.Serena asked "When is Friday again?""The day after tomorrow." Melvin replied."Okay, that's fine. I'll meet you at the place. Just let me know where." She told him."Are you sure that's okay?" Melvin was concerned."Yeah, it's totally cool,

Chapter Thirty
Mabel took one last sip from her coffee mug and that was it. She was going to call her baby girl and know how she was doing.She felt guilty for abandoning her like that, but she was helpless as well. She believed she would cope. She was going to make it out of the hell-hole Jeff had thrown her into.She dialed Serena's number and waited patiently for her to answer. She didn't pick on the first ring. Mabel stared at the knitted brown table mat which was used to cover the small kitchen table where she sat. She closed her eyes and prayed that her niece would forgive her. She had already been hurt too much. She wasn't supposed to be abandoned again for the second time. She could remember when she had just begun to talk properly. She was such a cute little girl."Mummy, I want ice-cream!" Little Serena had demanded as she held her stuffed pony to her chest.Mabel couldn't resist taking in such a beautiful darling. Her mother would regret that decision one day. She just knew, but she did
