Page 97 of She's perfect for Daddy

“Ew!” they exclaimed from the back seat, and Dad laughed.

“I also want to see her tomorrow.”

“Let's discuss it.”

“I'm good with arguments.”

“I know that.” I winked at him before hugging my bouquet and running into the building.

I was sighing and completely in love with that man. Every moment I spent with Thomas, I wanted more. Being part of his life and that of the girls was proving to be a great choice for me.

When I entered the apartment, I heard the television on and found my grandmother sitting in the armchair with a bucket of popcorn, munching slowly.

“Hey, Grandma! Just tell me you've had lunch.”

“The chicken you left ready.”

“Not so bad.”

“How did it go with Thomas's family?”

“Much better than I imagined.” I threw myself on the sofa, sighing.

“That's great news.”

“Yes.”

“That bouquet is bigger than mine.”

“Beautiful, isn't it?” I put my face in the flowers.

“You're falling in love with him.”

“How could I not fall in love, Grandma?” My heart began to beat faster. At the same time, I was tense.

“I'm very happy for you, my daughter.”

“Sometimes I'm afraid.”

“Did he ever give you any reason to worry?”

“No.”

“So don't suffer from things that are only in your head. Life is hard enough with real problems.”

“You're absolutely right.” I got up to kiss her forehead. “I'm going to take a shower.”

“You should have slept with him.”

“I've come to stay with you.”

“I'm sure that man, without clothes, is much better company.”

“Grandma!” My cheeks burned with shame.

“What's wrong?” She shrugged. “I was your age and disposition too.”

“But we don't need to talk about that.”
