When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Since Stella’s arrival, she had monopolized Leo’s attention.

Now, with Stella being married, Nola’s fears of losing Leo were allayed.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Nola suggested, “Stella, perhaps you could invite your husband over.

It would be delightful to include him in our gathering.

Nola was convinced that Leo’s lingering thoughts about Stella would dissipate once he witnessed her marital status.

Stella, however, declined politely.

“I appreciate the offer, but I have prior commitments.

Turning to Keith, she added, “There’s a party awaiting my presence downstairs.

I must excuse myself, but I promise to visit again when time permits.

”

“Are you leaving so soon?” Keith’s reluctance was evident, but he respected her time.

“Could I perhaps have your number? It would be wonderful to reconnect at a more opportune moment.
