Chapter 40 Hadley’s Request
“I was actually quite anxious earlier because Mr. Flynn, who usually attends, didn’t show up-” Lennon said, unable to hide his excitement. “But look at this! My worry was for nothing. Even though Mr. Flynn isn’t here, he’s still thinking about you.”
Really?
Hadley managed a smile, though it felt somewhat absurd.
When she was his wife, Eric barely noticed her. Now, hidden behind a mask, she had somehow caught his eye.
Who would have thought Eric would be captivated by a dancer of all people?
She pondered his potential reaction upon discovering who was behind the mask. Disappointment? Or perhaps
even anger?
Regardless, she was certain it wouldn’t be a welcome surprise.
… It was Monday, Hadley’s typical day off.
She had planned to spend the night with Nyla.
Nyla was happy to have her company and saw no reason to refuse.
Arriving early in the morning, Hadley came with her bag and everything she needed for the day.
Nyla woke up early, surprised to find Hadley already there. “Hadley, you’re here so early? Don’t you young people usually sleep in when you don’t have work to do?”
“I can catch up on sleep any time. Missing one day won’t hurt.”
Sitting beside Nyla, Hadley noticed how well she looked. She had been contemplating this conversation for days and had finally decided to voice her thoughts.
“Nyla.” Hadley gently took her hand. “I need to tell you something. Please promise you won’t get upset or agitated. I’m just sharing my feelings.”
Seeing Hadley’s earnest expression, Nyla responded with a reassuring smile, “Alright, I’m all ears.”
“Okay, I’ll say it then.”
“Go ahead.”
“Nyla,” Hadley began, her voice trembling slightly. “I’m so thankful you took me in all those years ago. If it hadn’t been for you, I likely would have had to stop dancing and look for a different job much earlier-”
