I left Gideon's building through the back entrance and told Dave to drive to the airport, I was going home. I checked the time and it was 23:00 pm. I texted Annalise to let her know I was on my way home, and I waited for her response, she didn't respond so I left it at that ,I'm sure she's with John or something. Dave and I arrived at the airport at 23:18 pm and we went straight to the jet. It was awesome to be on my way home, I never should have stayed, this entire journey has been completely draining, I needed to feel comfortable again, in the comfort of my home. I was back in Florida in no time and back in Tampa Bay, quicker than that. I walked into my gorgeous condo, that was beyond amazing , it felt so good to be home, I ran upstairs and into my bedroom and jumped onto my bed, it felt so good to lay in my own bed. I fell asleep after taking a long shower.
The next morning I woke at 07:00 am and I took a long shower, I dressed in a lace crop top and a long black skirt with black Louboutin heels. I decided to take a picture outside, with a red rose, simply because I haven't been on social media in forever. I let my hair flow wildly and I loved it that way. I then posted it online and within seconds I had 3 million likes and 450000 comments... One comment stood out to me

@thegideoncross My beautiful 💗 I can't wait to hold you again. What the hell??? I thought to myself, we hadn't even discussed social media activity, this was new, I knew he just wanted to make it known to every other guy that I was his. I had mentally prepared myself for the wave of media attention that one little comment was going to bring upon us. I ignored it and went about my day, I had a few meetings which I was Skyped into , and I had a dress fitting for Christians parents annual charity ball. I left to get to my appointment on time
When I got to my appointment I saw that the designer had picked a baby blue dress that I simply adored, I couldn't help but take a picture and post it online . " When everything is on point besides yourself " was my caption , upon posting it I received millions of likes and comments but ignored it.

My phone began to ring and it was Nicole. "Heyyyyyy you, I noticed you started posting again, and that little black outfit you wore is liiiiife" "Hey, thank you, I miss you, when can we meet? " "I'm free now, you wanna grab lunch together?" "Yeah please, I'm forgetting to eat these days, it'll be good to get out with my bestie again, I have so much to tell you, you are going to die!!" "I cannot wait to hear all about it, I have something to tell you as well." "Yay, girl time with my bestie, I'm so excited, see you soon." We hung up and I changed back into my clothes, I thanked the designer and was on my way. I got to the restaurant before Annalise , so I decided to get us a good seat. I checked my phone. I had a few texts from Gideon.
"Who is that with you in that picture you posted online, do you realise what the media is going to do?"
"Gideon , he's an upcoming designer, relax. I'm not having this conversation with you right now, that's childish , I refuse to spend my time arguing over this. Goodbye."
At that time Annalise walked in, I waved at her , she wore a black dress and her famous red lip.
We spoke the entire time and she was amazed when I told her that I finally told him about my miscarriage, she always told me to tell him, but I never listened until now. I asked her what her news was and she told me that she and John have actually started discussing getting married, she said he's completely open to it only because of her, the way her eyes lit up when she said it ,made me get all giddy over it with her. I was so happy for her, I know that she's always wanted to be married to John , but even if he hadn't said that, she would still be happy, because she truly does love him and he loves her, I guess the final step doesn't matter as much if you are just in love with someone and would do anything for them. Just then, I had a random thought.. "Remember before I hopped onto the Gideon train again, you were planning on setting me up with someone and I never got to go back because I ended up staying with Gideon.. Who was it though?" "Okay so don't freak, but it was some guy that John knows, his name is Dwayne, hes been dying to get a date with you and practically begged John and I for weeks..." "Why would I freak? It's okay I get it." "Well I didn't know you whether or not you would have wanted to go and besides I knew that Gideon wasn't in your past and I knew you weren't ready to put him there anyway..." "I guess you know me better than I know myself..."
The rest of our brunch was spent talking about unnecessary things and then I told Nicole about my place in New York and showed her a bunch of pictures, as predicted she loved the place and said we needed to have a girls day there soon!!
