"Do you like him?" He asked her.
Shawna stared at him for a while before replying.
"He is friendly, but the only man I think of when I have the chance to is you. The only thing I ask of is why did he leave me? Did I annoy him? What did I really do?"
"My mind always flashes back to the last day, the day you drove me back to the mansion from the penthouse. I always think of that day particularly. I try to remember what I did wrong that day but couldn't remember. You are the only man occupying my mind, but sadly...." she took her eyes down and continued.
"....I don't even know if that man ever loved me because he has never said so, I've never heard him look me in the eyes and say it" she took her eyes back up.
"Have you ever felt something for me before?" She asked.??
Dillon continued staring at her, his mouth sealed as if there was a glue used on it.
"Have you?" She asked again.
"I need some time alone" was the only reply that Dillon gave her before leaving.
Shawna sighed sadly, she looked at the time on the wall clock. She decided to lie down and wait for him to return whenever he feels like but unfortunately he didn't return till the following morning.?
A tiny hand pulled her own hand, she slid her eyes open.
"Someone is at the door mom, why aren't you waking up?" Lewis hands kept roaming her body still she sat up on the bed.
"Ouch, is it morning already?" She wondered.
"Where is your nanny?" She asked Lewis.
"In the kitchen" lewis reply came.
"Has she prepared you for school?" Shawna asked again.
"Yes, as you can see, but, where is dad? I want him to be the one taking me to school. I want him to take me to school" lewis said climbing the bed.
He removed her hand from her head to stare into her face.
"Where is he?" He asked peering into her eyes.
"I don't know. He left last night" Shawna answered getting down from the bed with lewis in her arms.
"Just allow your nanny take you to school today" she said to him as she dropped him in the dinning area.?
"Morning Venessa" she greeted lewis nanny.
"Oh morning miss, how are you doing? Hope you aren't sick?" The woman asked.
"No ma'am, I'm good. Who is at the door please?" Shawna asked.
"Oh, it's a young man. He is obviously here for you" replied Venessa.
"Ok thanks" she thanked then went inside. She washed her face, dried it then left to open the door. She opened the door to see Daniel.
Of course, he had told her he'll be coming today.
She closed the door behind her and took two steps out to talk to him.
"Hi Daniel" she greeted the already smiling daniel.
"Hi beauty, you look beautiful even in the morning" Daniel said.
Shawna laughed.
"Thanks" A pause stepped in.
"So....Daniel, there is actually an important thing I need to discuss with you" Shawna started.
"Go on, that's why I'm here remember" Daniel said.
"Ok..we were supposed to hang out yesterday, as in go on a date but you got hooked up."
"I..I'm sorry to say this but I don't think it can work because....Lewis dad, he's back, I'm really sorry."
Daniel's face fell at the unexpected news. Shawna kept apologizing until he left feeling so heart broken and disappointed.
Shawna stood outside for a long time staring at Daniel's faded shadow. She opened the door and made to go in but saw Dillon coming back.
She paused, she closed back the door to face him.?
"Morning" she greeted folding her arms.
Dillon didn't reply her greetings. He just decided to go straight to the point.
"Ok listen Shawna. It's really hard for me, it's been so hard for me to express my feelings to someone. I can't do it, I don't know how to express verbally. But that doesn't mean that I don't love you, well..things didn't start well but along the line I started developing feelings for you but I wasn't still sure of myself."
"I tried holding myself back too, I tried convincing myself that I don't love you but the pleasure I derive from you, well now that everything is over. I understand if you've moved on too but can I just stay around? At least be around my son" he asked.
"You truly suck at confession. If I were to hear this from someone else, I'd laugh at the person and then push him away but...I just ended every relationships that was about to develop between daniel and I. I still love you, stupid me. I still can't forget you maybe because you are my first."
