"Damn the depth of love you two have for each other is intense as it is scary." Caleb comment as they drive away from their gate. "I think it cool." Fabian ads. "You treat her as if she's your first love. I mean people would never have known that you had your heart broken in millions of pieces, not once or twice but three different times by three different women." Caleb snorts.
"I know, I almost didn't survive what Kayla did to me but trust me when I say, I'm utterly, totally and completely in love with Janice." Ty said biting his lips. "And that's what I don't understand. After everything you've been through, how is it that you're able to open your heart to Janice so completely?" Caleb asks.
"Well because I realize that the more time I spend being hurt and angry is the less time I spend been happy. I was so consumed with what Kayla did to me and that Tyrone wasn't my child that I almost made that sweet, loving, wonderful woman slip through my fingers because I wanted a child of my own so badly and I thought she couldn't give me one."
"Yeah you wanted one so badly you actually considered going back to Kayla just so you could get one." Fabian state in a disgusted tone. "Oh man, that was..." "The worst decision you could've ever made." Caleb finish for him. "Yeah, it would've been, I think I just lost sight of the fact that God is the one in charge of my life, not me." He chuckles.
"You know I gave her the cheque that dad gave me and she was so concern with the fact that I was leaving that she didn't even look at what I gave her." Ty state with a light laugh. "Are you serious? You gave her a cheque for half a freaking million dollars and she didn't notice?" Fabian asks in shock.
"Yep, because she was more focus on me, not what she can get from me, or what I've to offer, but me, and that tells me a lot about her." Ty said smiling at his wife's photo on his phone. "By the way Jason is meeting you at the airport right?" Caleb asks.
"Yes." "I thought he didn't make it into the program." Fabian said. "He didn't at first but then one of the candidates dropped out for personal reason, so Jase took the spot." 'So doesn't Jessica feels left out?" Fabian asks. "Not really, she wasn't going to take the spot anyway, also for personal reasons." Ty laughs.

"Are you alright Jan?" Amara asks stepping into her room with Maya and Anna behind her. The three women stood inside the door watching Janice walking back and forth flashing her fingers as if she was burnt by hot water."I'll be alright." She answers in her soft voice. "I know he had to go. This course is very important to him, to us actually, I so want him to accomplish his dreams. You see my mind knows that but my heart..." she said patting her chest lightly. "My heart is on a different wave length" She said trying to fight back her tears.
"Don't worry, he'll be back soon." Maya said rubbing her shoulder. "Again my mind knows that, it my heart that's the problem. You see, for months I've been trying to figure out why all those women would hurt such a wonderful man. He's the most sensitive, intense, passionate man I've ever known." "And how many men have you known?" Anna asks laughing.
"Good point but I've seen the attitude of many and no one comes even close to Ty." She comment. "Well my brother is very unique." Anna giggles. "Yeah so perfect I wish he was my husband." Maya comment. "Maya!" Anna said slapping her on her arm.
"I know, I know, I'm been patient with Caleb just like you said but I'm not going to lie, it's hard sometimes." She said with a sigh. "But I've been wondering though, if Ty treated those other women the way he treats me, the them hurting him really doesn't make sense to me." Janice said shaking her head.
"Let just say that Ty's love was too intense for them to handle." Anna laugh. Janice then took up the shirt Ty slept in the night before and inhale his scent then sigh deeply. "Which woman wouldn't want a man like him to be the father of her children? I almost died of disappointment when I thought I couldn't give him kids."
"To lay next to him and listen to him telling you about his work, his day, his life growing up, his dreams for the future. Which woman wouldn't want that? I'm so confused." "Well it doesn't matter who didn't want him because now you have him, so their lost." Amara laughs. "And I'm never letting him go. I love the way he rubs my feet whenever he can. The way he loves me, caress me, touch me and nibbles me all over." She sighs dreamily as she breathes out each phrase. "Oh boy, we're going to leave so you can call him before he boards his private jet." Maya laughs ushering the other ladies out the door.
As soon as the ladies left Janice immediately began looking for her phone on the bed but what she found instead made her eyes bulge and her jaw drop in shock. Because on the bed where she had dropped it before running after Ty was the piece of paper he had so lovingly placed in her hand.
Only it wasn't just any piece of paper but a cheque and on it was written five hundred thousand dollars. But then her shock was replaced by great concern. He had never given her a cheque like this before. What if he had made a mistake? What if he had intended to take this with him but gave her the wrong piece of paper.
She again began searching for her phone and finding it under her pillow she quickly dialed his number, he answer on the second ring. "Hi kitten." He answers softly. "Hi baby, where are you?" "Jason and I are getting ready to board the jet." He said.
"Are you okay kitten?" He asks in concern. "Me? Yes, I'm fine, well not fine because in a few minutes you'll be miles away from me but....um I think you may've made a mistake." She said chewing at the inside of her mouth. "What kind?" He asks in a confused tone.
"The piece of paper you put in my hand earlier was a cheque for half a million dollars baby." "Oh, that wasn't a mistake kitten. That was my gift to you." "A gift? But why?" "Because I love you kitten." "But you've never given me a gift like this before, so why now?" She ask in a puzzled and unsure tone.
"Well actually I have. This's the third time, the first two times I put it on your Master card but since you hardly use it, you never noticed." He laughs. "Oh, but baby you know you don't have to do things like this to prove how much you love me right? I already know how much you love me Ty."
For a while there was nothing but dead silence at the other end of the line but she could still hear him breathing. "Baby...please.....this's too much." Still no answer or comment.
That was when it hit her, a few months ago someone at hit work had said something upsetting to him but instead of getting angry he became very quiet and then he had done it again a few weeks ago when Caleb had used the 'f' word to him and now she was doing the same thing.
She was hurting his feelings by not appreciating what he was doing for her but still this was a lot. "Come on baby you can't just put a cheque for this amount in my hands and not expect me to ask you about it." And finally he spoke. "Is that what you're doing?" He asks. What do you mean?" "Are you asking me about it or you telling me you can't accept a gift I gave you from my heart?" He asks and there was no question about it, she had hurt his feelings.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. What I should've said was I love you and thank you very much." "Repeat the last part of that sentence." He orders softly which made her smile.
"Thank you baby." She said looking at the cheque on the bed. "That's better and you're welcome by the way." He chuckles softly. "So what am I suppose to do with it?" She asks. "Your money, your choice." Was his response.
