“I do. Mrs. Adam, you’ve got it twisted. I’m not into Ericko like that,” Maggie quickly set the record straight thinking back to what Nathael had said last night.

She wondered why he did push her a little harder because she would have said yes if he did.

Yet, deep down, she knew it would always be him.

Despite her own second–guessing, Maggie could not imagine being with anyone else.

Hearing this, Fiona felt a bit let down and went straight for the jugular with her next question, catching Maggie off guard, “So, when are you going to break it off?”

Phillip cleared his throat loudly.

Phillip could not stand to watch anymore and had to say something.

Ericko, feeling a headache coming on, was shocked to hear Maggie had a boyfriend, especially since Nathael did not strike him as the type to charm someone like her.

Fiona, though, seemed to really hit it off with Maggie, diving into deep conversation. Maggie, enjoying the vibe, stayed close to her mom, keeping her company and making sure she was having a good time.

Ericko watched the scene unfold with gentle eyes.

Remembering Nathael mentioning her stomach troubles and skipping breakfast, he quickly arranged for a breakfast delivery.

Initially feeling out of place, Maggie was persuaded by Fiona and Ericko to join them for the meal.

Time seemed to speed up as they enjoyed their morning.

When Fiona appeared slightly tired, Maggie decided it was time to say goodbye.

Grasping her hand, Fiona offered a heartfelt invitation, “Drop by my place sometime or come see me at work. Our home might not be filled with much, but our jewelry

Maggie listened to Fiona’s generous words, yet her smile faltered.
