Conway threw me out like trash on the streetājust because I had the balls to say I loved him.
I return to New York and ask Andrew to give me the job I stupidly turned down. Thankfully, heās not spiteful and vindictive like Conway and hires me. Now I have money in my pocketāand Iām not a prisoner to anyone. I buy myself an apartment and start a new life in an old place. Conway hasnāt calledāand I suspect he never will.
But three weeks later, he shows up on my doorstep, his eyes in repentance. The butterflies in my stomach roar like fire-breathing dragons, but I give him the coldest stare I can muster. He apologizes for everythingābut itās not enough. Itās not enough because I can look him in the eye and tell him I want him for the rest of my lifeāand he refuses to admit he feels the same way.
When Conway leaves, itās like another breakup, but itās more painful than the first. It hurts far more because I know he wants exactly what I wantābut heāll never admit that. Even after three weeks of silence, I still love him. Is this the last time Iāll ever see him?
Or will he finally realize Iām the woman he canāt live without?
