Eve's POV
By 9am in the morning. I went down to a stream at my backyard. I sit at a bench nearby. Mothers and kids enjoy morning breakfast picnic with some friends.
My heart skipped for a while as I looking at the bench right next to me. There, Kayden! He is looking at me & smile sweetly. My hand feels weak and the bottle fell down. The joy and the nervous systems in me goes
haywire. This feeling, the excitement in me uncontrollably goes to my eyes forcing me looking into his eyes if he could read them telling him my confusion, or the love I kept for so long, missing him as my friend or someone I treasure more than a friend.Kayden walk slowly towards me.
"Hey, Eve. How u doing."
"Am good."
We both said "..I" then chuckled.
"U first." Again we both said.
"Ok, u first." I told Kayden.
"Umm... I received your letter from Alison."Oh no! My cheeks feels hot listening to this.
"Nia said u are not coming home." I paused him.
He smile and looking at me.
"You have a pretty eyes he said."
He is getting closer. My heart beating fast and the adrenaline rush and exploded on my cheeks. Burning in red. He come closer, grabbing my hand.
"It's official today." He whispers on my ears.
I step back a little. Try to leave a space between us. Right now at this moment, I'm so excited. BUT hey myself. How do I explains this to Rick? I like Kayden better? I love Rick less than Kayden? Or leave the relationship hanging? No matter the excuses but right now, this is wrong. I need to stop this. This is wrong. This is bad!
