Julian had fallen deeply in love with Quinn after getting to know her. He did not want to scare her.
He had never been afraid of anything until Quinn. He became hesitant when it came to anything related to her.
“When can your mom and I go over to meet the Crawfords? We’ve even shopped for gifts several times. Your mom and I added more gifts to the pile whenever she thought of something. I’m sure we’ve prepared every gift anyone can think of.”
Walter was anxious.
Julian was almost forty years old and one of the oldest bachelors in Wiltspoon alongside Duncan. How could he not be worried?
“Dad, I haven’t confessed to Quinn… You can’t come over yet.”
Walter scolded, “How long has it been? Why haven’t you confessed to her? Does she have someone she likes, or did you chicken out?”
“It hasn’t been that long, Dad. I haven’t even been in Summervale for a full month yet. Quinn treats me like a brother, which makes it difficult for me to confess. I don’t dare to do it either. I feel like we should spend more time together before I profess.”
Walter was exasperated. “Where are your guts? I guess even you can be scared sometimes. What a shocker. Even someone who fell in love at first sight can confess immediately. Look at you. You’ve known Quinn for two or three months, yet you don’t dare to confess to her.
“You may not want a wife, Julian, but I want my grandchildren.”
Julian replied, “I do want Quinn, Dad. I’m afraid she might be unable to take it when she finds out about my feelings for her. She’s easygoing and likes treating men like brothers. Besides, I’m so much older than her…”
“Age isn’t a problem. If you don’t confess, she won’t know how you feel. That’s why she treats you like a bro. On the other hand, if you do confess, she’ll understand your feelings and no longer see you as a brother.
“She’s a nice girl. If you don’t hurry up, don’t come back crying if someone else snatches her away.
