Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 208

Chapter 208

Leanna had been standing out on the balcony for an hour. She rested her arms on the railing and propped her head on her hands.

She watched the flurry of snowflakes increase as time went on.

Zoe came out of the shower and noticed that Leanna was still in the same position with her eyes unmoved as well, so she went over and peered in the same direction. "What's so nice for you to look at?"

Leanna snapped out of her reverie and smiled faintly. "It's nothing."

"You're waiting for someone, aren't you?" Zoe deduced.

Then, she sighed. "What's with that b*stard anyway? He said he would come and look for you tonight, but he hasn't shown up yet. I'd be worried too if I were you."

What?

"That is not what I am thinking," Leanna explained softly.

"I don't believe you," Zoe replied.

Leanna turned her eyes back to the front and took a deep breath. "Elijah confessed to me yesterday."

Zoe perked up at once. "How did he do it? What did he say? Wait, no, hang on. Did you say yes or did you reject him?"

Leanna shook her head before saying slowly, "I should give myself a chance."

"You're right about that. It's true. You don't need to hold out for that sucker anyway."

"...That wasn't the case either. I'm just not ready yet."

"What's there to be ready for? Love often comes when you least expect it," Zoe declared. "Leanna, you worry too much. Life is short. So what if you date someone without getting married to them? All that matters is your happiness."

Leanna pursed her lips and stayed quiet.

Zoe looked at her and said, "Leanna, I know why you're so conflicted over this."

"Why?" Leanna asked without giving it much thought.

"It's because you still like Aidan, right?"
