Chapter 23

I was half asleep when someone removed my seatbelt and lifted me up. Even though I felt like it was just a dream, I knew who it was without even looking. I still closed my eyes, I didn't want to spoil the moment I was feeling. This was the first time he did it to me.

He was changing. Though it wasn't too drastic but his hard heart was becoming soft a little, and that for me, was enough. We have been able to talk properly for a few days now. Who would have thought? Thas was our progress now even I've been so scared of him in the past.

I didn't know how he did it. He was able to enter the house while I was being carried. He laid me on the soft bed. It wasn't my bed. I opened my eyes a little and saw Zach's room. I closed my eyes as soon as he covered me with blanket.

The bed deepened on my side once a hand caressed my hair. Even with my eyes closed, I knew he was staring at me now.
