The next few days, Olivia buried herself in work, trying to forget the night she got ditched. She got pretty affected by it, even though she don't want to think about it.

She was ready to listen to him.. To listen to why he had to do that to her 2 years ago and maybe forgive him but he played with those chances.

Maynard has always been that way... His ways aren't trusted. From the way he played with her feelings and didn't return to plead for forgiveness until just few months back, then he suddenly wants her

back!!

She should have known he was up to something... She shouldn't have fallen for his mischievous ways.

What would Maynard achieve putting her through so much trouble? Hasn't he done enough already?

Olivia stretched out her limbs and got off the bed, wearing her flip-flops and heads out of her room, calling out Lucy's name and rubbing her sleepy eyes.

She didn't realize she has been sleeping for this long, well.. It's called laziness.She moved to the window to shut them but stopped halfway when she saw Maynard's car still parked right outside her home.With a frown, she tried to see if she'd catch a glance of him in the car but he wasn't in sight."I won't leave... Not until you hear what I have to say..!!""Then you can just keep standing over there and waiting for me to come out and listen to your silly excuses.."She recalled the last conversation they had... Does that mean?.. Is he still standing outside and waiting for her to.. Dammit!Olivia immediately grabbed an umbrella and rushed out without thinking twice.

    THE FOLLOWING MORNINGMaynard slowly reached for her cheeks caressing it slightly so as not to wake her up. He gently moved some strands of her hair behind her ears and smiled. He loved it when her pretty face was the first thing he saw when he woke up and he couldn't stop staring.Last night, he felt her warmth as she took care of him. Nothing about her changed at all, tho she try to act all tough and strong headed but deep down, she's a sweet little kitten who cares alot for others regardless.She still cares about him but tries to hide it.. Maynard couldn't help but chuckle. If she doesn't care about him like she claimed, why else would she stay but his side without leaving. There's still a chance after all..

She loved it at first but after realizing who that could be, she snapped her eyes open at once.She lifts herself up in a sitting position and seeing Maynard, she immediately began to feel his t

    "What are you doing? Let go of me" Olivia tried to take his hands off but he hugged her tighter instead."Am sorry" He said as that was all he could think of right now.Olivia closed her eyes, inhaling deeply and letting out more tears. As much as she wants to, she can't seem to stop crying.Maynard pulled her back to the center of the room, he let go of her and came in front of her, going on his knees."I know what I did was totally wrong and I have no right to say sorry. My actions and everything caused a lot of pain to you..."Olivia turned her back against him, she couldn't look at him. Like, the more she did look at him, the more pain she gets.".. No amount of sorry can erase the hurtful memories you have about our wedding but I'm deeply sorry for everything Olivia. I shouldn't have been a jerk, I shouldn't have betrayed you. I know it's hard to believe but Vernes is out of my life completely. I have nothing to do with her anymore and I want you to know that I'm being sincere..

You honestly don't know what she has done to me Mark, She's my life now"Mark grinned widely.. "I love the sound of that. Now, this is the Maynard I've been searching for this past few years.."Maynard chuckled... Mark is absolutely right.

He said as soon as he got in front of her.Olivia rolled her eyes at him. "You talk as if we haven't seen each other in years. C'mon, it's only been a few days..."He chuckled.
