"I can't say I agree or disagree with you," I say to Vanessa. "You're the one who knows your father best. Do you really think he's hiding something?"

"Maybe I'm just thinking too much, she says dismissively, shifting in her seat. "It just felt like there's something he wanted to say but chose not to say it." "And what gave you that idea?"

"I know him."

"You know what I think? You're just thinking too much."

"Maybe you're right." She leans back in her seat, relaxing her shoulders.

"Are you absolutely certain that Shane won't try anything stupid?" I ask.

"To be honest, I've been a little worried, but the look on his face was clear enough that he wouldn't say anything that would get him in trouble."

"Good."

As the car falls silent, I find myself thinking about earlier when I arrived with her father and she was so happy that she kissed me. I've kissed her so many times now and it's more than I can count, yet during that single moment, my heart actually skipped a beat in surprise. I know she was acting, but it was just so sudden for me.

"Hey," she says, grabbing my attention again.

"What is it?"

"Tell me about your time spent at the orphanage and hospital."

I smile a little, always glad to know that she's interested to find out about the children even though she was there a few days ago.

As I tell her about my time there and how the children were asking about her, she faces my direction, brightly smiling at me.

The awkwardness between us naturally fades and it's like that moment in the study never even happened, but I'll never forget what it felt like when she rejected me.

Unlike the other time when we just came back from my parents' house after dinner, the car comes to a stop in the yard and we head inside together.

Just as we approach the elevator, she stops and says, "I was actually thinking about something."

"What is it?"

"It's something I want to add for the children at the orphanage in the courtyard but I don't know if you'll agree with it."

"Just tell me."

I get even closer to her, paying attention while she describes her idea to me. Impressed, my lips curve into a smile. "How did I never think of that?"

"Do you like it?" She chuckles, pressing the button to the elevator.
