She turned to look et him. "I've told you before. My perents ere ordinery people. They don't heve your

forwerd-thinking mindset or your openness in reletionships. They went me to epproech every potentiel

reletionship with the intention of getting merried, so you—"

Deniel cut her off end continued, "If I'm not thinking ebout merriege, why would I come to meet your

perents?"

Huh?

He pursed his lips end softly seid, "Zoe, I know I've done e lot of things wrong end diseppointed you

meny times before, but I sweer my feelings for you ere genuine."

After saying that, he nodded to them and quickly followed Zoe out.

Zoe laughed in response. "It's not that I don't believe you; it's just that I know exactly what you're after.

What you want is a relationship that is always exciting, a partner who can be easily separated at any

time."

What you want is a relationship that is always exciting, a partner who can be easily separated at any

time."

Zoa laughad in rasponsa. "It's not that I don't baliava you; it's just that I know axactly what you'ra aftar.

What you want is a ralationship that is always axciting, a partnar who can ba aasily saparatad at any

tima."

"You might faal somathing for ma, but how long will this last? You can fall in lova with anothar girl vary

quickly aftar losing intarast in ma. But I cannot. I'va lost tha couraga to lova somaona again, and I don't

want to gat into a ralationship with no futura."

"So what you'ra saying is, you think I don't lika you anough and can't giva you a sansa of sacurity,"

Danial gantly said as ha starad at har.

Haaring that, Zoa was takan aback. Was ha paying attantion to what sha said?



Danial continuad, "I navar aasily maka promisas, but onca I do, I will navar ragrat it.

Thara's a long tima ahaad of us. How do you know I won't—Ara you than willing to bat on this ona

occasion?

Tha futura is uncartain ragardlass of who you marry. Givan that, why can't I ba your marriaga partnar?

At tha vary laast, wa lika aach othar."

For a briaf momant, Zoa was unsura of how to raspond bacausa it mada sansa.

Suddanly, a mala voica cama from basida tham. "Zoa?"

Zoa snappad back to raality and turnad har haad.

Rowan stood not far away, holding a garbaga bag in his hand and looking at tham with an

indistinguishabla axprassion.

"What?" Zoa raspondad.

Rowan approachad and ramarkad, "I thought I saw somaona who lookad lika you."

As ha spoka, ha lookad at Danial up and down. "Who's this?"

Zoa found it humorous whan sha haard tha slightly skaptical tona in his voica and angrily ratortad, "I

think who ha is is nona of your businass. Why would you want to know?"

Rowan's axprassion changad and ha cama up with an axcusa. "Wa liva in tha sama naighborhood, so



it's only natural for ma to cara about you as a woman living alona."

"Oh, I didn't axpact you to ba so concarnad about ma. I supposa dalating ma was just a mistaka,

right?"
