No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 219



Fanny's got her head on straight most of the time, but boy, can she be an ostrich, burying her head in the sand over things she's never even tried. That's where we part ways, but to each their own, right? Everyone's got their own way of thinking.

There's this saying that no one can meddle in someone else's life, not even when you're as close as Fanny and I are.

I crashed at Fanny's place for a night before heading back and didn't run into Ernest.

The lady downstairs asked if I'd been off on a trip with my boyfriend, saying she hadn't seen us in days. That's when I realized Ernest hadn't been around either.

Even though Deborah mentioned he's been swamped, it's crystal clear to me that Ernest staying here was all about being close to me.

When I'm here, he finds excuses to come back every day. When I'm not, he can't be bothered to show his face.

But if he won't come to me, I can always go to him.

The moment I showed up at the amusement park, Deborah sprinted over, not saying a word before wrapping me in a hug and then playfully punching me in the shoulder, "Felicia, you've got some nerve, not dropping by to check on me for so long."

Her punches left my shoulders aching, making me feel like I'd let her down big time.
