- same old ring

DIANA'S POV

"Bruce ...?" I called out to him.

No response. Maybe he's off somewhere.

I went to the bathroom and saw a lovely tub with candles and petals.oh how much i loved the ambience.

You never fail to amaze me Bruce.

I shut the door and sat on the tube smelling the beautiful vanilla and rose petals .

Are you trying something Bruce? Do you want to start over like before?

Random thoughts kept roaming around .

Then I remembered Hal . I needed to check on him .

I called Hal but he wasn't picking up. Then I called him the second time then he picked.

"Hal are you allright? Did you reach home?" I asked.

"Hey um.. Flash here. He's sleeping but he's fine though . " he replied .

"Oh thats great . Thank you so much for helping him ." I replied .

"How about you? Are you fine? Did Bruce drop you home?" He asked .

Bruce dropping me home? Okay so he intentionally brought me here.

"Yes, he did. I am fine thanks. I'll be off now tired. Sleep well okay?" I asked.

"Sure, you too."

He hung up.

I then rinsed myself wrapped a towel around and went outside. I had no spare clothes so I decided to borrow few of Bruce's shirts.

I was looking around. So many shirts some dull some bright.

God his choices .

I was tumbling across when I saw a box. I opened it without any reason and there was the ring.

The same old ring . Why did he still have it? Why did he not throw it?

"Looking for something?" Bruce asked.

I closed the box and turned back.

"Um... I needed clothes." I said.

I could feel him gazing at me deeply. He looked at me from head to toe as if I was his lover .

"Here" he said handing out a bag.

"I bought clothes for you."

"What?" I looked at the bag pretty dresses were there.

"Bruce.. You shouldn't have.." I said.

"Go and change. Although the towel only looks perfect." He winked.

"Stop it" I said pushing him away and going to the guest room.

Clear your head Diana. You don't want any fuss.

I slipped on the dress Bruce bought for me . It looked rather expensive but I didn't want him to do things like this for me. I didn't want to cling onto him.

I went outside so I could bid him goodnight . He was in the balcony sipping some of his beer.

"See I knew blue would suit you" he said.

" I'll go to bed now. Thanks for today."

"Sure. If you need anything I'm just a door away." He said.

"Sure." I replied.
