Gilbert hadn't come back, because he was with Callie.

"If Gilbert isn't serious about you, then I won't hold back."

She really meant it, didn't she?

Annoyed, Sherilyn tossed her phone aside and turned over to sleep.

When the sky began to lighten, she woke up and checked the time - it was 5 AM.

Had Gilbert really not come home all night?

Sherilyn stretched her arms, stood up, and felt her stomach grumble with hunger.
