But whatever it is draws a big smile on my face and I feel better from inside.Getting up on my legs I walk inside the washroom and after getting freshen up and having a shower change into a trouser and sleeveless tee.

It pricks the needle to her heart and she was feeling terribly heavy from inside. When a soft knock lands on her door and her head snaps toward it.Her eyes moistened to find Shawn with a tray on his hands and adding guilt to her made her feel more pathetic.I'm such a cruel hearted person.I intentionally tried to hurt him while he still brought food for me, she says to herself feel iniquity.“Can I come in?”, he seeks her permission and with a sealed lips she gives a small nod.Words felt tied to the back of her throat, scared that they might say hurtful things to him again.

Emma's POVFrom the moment our eyes met, my breath was knocked out. He looked killer as usual tonight cladded in black from head to toe. His jawline has gotten sharper, maybe because of his ill health from a few days ago. He looked like a dashing young man though he was in his early 30’s.
