No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 21



"Felicia, don't get it twisted," Haley said, and I almost burst out laughing. I recalled moments ago when Haley assumed her boyfriend was Conrad while picking out the bedding.

"Is that for Conrad?" I eyed the bedding she chose, a sleek combo of blue and gray, Conrad's old preference. But that was before. Under my influence, his taste has brightened considerably.

Haley bit her lip, hesitating for seconds before shaking her head. "No, it's not what you think. It's for my brother."

I didn't bother to argue with her and went straight to the point. "So, Conrad's moving in with you?"

Conrad had mentioned he couldn't let anything happy to Haley's child. Being around 24/7 seemed like the logical solution.

"How can you say such a thing?" Haley burst out.

"You're buying him beddings. How can I not say that?" I countered, laced with sarcasm.

"Felicia, you're getting jealous. Conrad hate that," Haley said. Her words made me laugh.

"What's so funny?" She looked at me, eyes wide with innocence yet tinged with caution.
