JANE
It had been three days since I last spoke to Dominic on the night of the gala. Let alone speak to him; I hadn't even seen him except for a few glimpses from afar.
He was avoiding me.
But why? Why would he avoid me all of a sudden? We were good at the party. What happened after he came home?
No matter how much I wracked my brain, I just couldn't point out the reason. A maid had been reminding me about my tablets every day. Someone would always call me for breakfast and dinner.
My lunch would be at Antonio's villa. The renovation of the villa was the only thing keeping me going during the days. But at night, I was missing Dominic terribly.
I knew what was happening was for the better. It'd prepare me for the future when Dominic... But day by day, my feelings for him were getting deeper and my days were getting worse.
I had been waking up every morning in hopes of getting to see him and talk to him, only for my hopes to be crushed.
