Chapter 47: Chapter 47

Damon mulled it over before saying, "I need some time to think it through." Better him needing time than straight up rejecting me. I nodded, "Alright." After we finished our coffee, Damon suggested hitching a ride home with me since his car was gone. Of course, I didn’t object. To my surprise, we actually chatted a bit during the drive. Most of the talk was about my past excessive pursuit of him. I made fun of myself openly and Damon didn’t ignore me like before. At the entrance to Starlight Estates, I exclaimed, "Can’t believe there’s still a chance for us to patch things up." "Anything can happen in life," Damon replied nonchalantly. True that.

If I forgive you, would you feel guilty and change your ways for the child?" I asked. I couldn’t say "a friend of mine" because Sofia is my friend, it’s too easy to guess. I had to ask in my own name. Damon wouldn’t think too much of it. After all, I used to throw silly questions at him all the time. He never responded, but I never got tired of it.

Damon frowned and his tone got serious, "Are you pregnant?" I was startled. He didn’t actually believe it, did he? I quickly explained, "No. I just saw a TV show. The plot was impressive so I wanted to know what a man would think."
