I looked at John as he parked his car at quarter to ten in the evening, and I said, "John, thank you so much for your time tonight. I must confess that I was delighted and very touched by what you did earlier."
"It's nothing. I told you I'd take care of everything for you, right?"
"That was incredible! I can't believe it! And I've never been treated like that before. That is one of the reasons I love you."
"I love you, too," he said gently, and before I knew it, there was just an inch between us, and when I closed my eyes, it was the touch of our lips.
"That was very sweet."
"You're so sweet. So, I'll go inside and you can go home as well. It's starting to get late,"

Julia's POVI looked at my ceiling and keeps on checking my phone if John's been messaging or calling me. I couldn’t bear to be unable to talk and not to be with John. I missed him so much!Because of my mom, he broke up with me, and until now I haven't talked to mom yet and I didn't want to. I also think that Dad pretends that he doesn't know about it or just because maybe he really doesn't know.I wondered if John and I were really separated or if there was any hope that we would get along? I trust him when he said that he will make a way for the three of us. I understand why he did that. He just doesn't want me and my mom to have a broken relationship just because of him.I just wanted to be with him, right away.

You see, it's hard to enter into a relationship if there's a child involved, and like me being a single mom."Julia, we're not surprised about it because your mom, Judy, and your dad told us everything way back before. I mean, I know and I can see it from the start that you're not really just siblings,"she said.
