The next day Shy's mood was different she was even more standoffish when Winston came to see her. Hi he said but he could tell that she had pulled even farther away. That's when Winston decided to not push and let her come to him.
I'm not staying I've got some work that have to be in early in the morning anyway I'll talk to later. But there's one thing that I want to ask you Shy, why are you even more distant now.
Shy just looked she was impressed to know that he felt that. She was impressed to feel the care in the tone of his voice the manner of his body language spoke to her.
Shy's day went on as usual but she would allow herself to even think about Winston. She got home after work and her dinner was soup and grilled cheese her not wanting to cook anything heavy.
After eating and getting a bath Shy laid across her bed for a quick nap before he caalled. A call she didn't want to ever miss.
The phone rang hello Winston she said how do you know it was me. Because you're the only person that calls me.
Today when I came to your work you were even more distant more today than usual. I don't want to seem harsh but it isn't your past that bothers me it's the here and now. You can't dwell on things that happened in the past or what anyone have done to you. Shy you can not allow harmful things said or done in the past ruin what is standing in front of you. Don't turn into the person that did you wrong. People don't understand that if you turn cold for revenge they'll turn into that that did them wrong.
If you turn cold for revenge you become them.
I am here for you Shy I won't push but I can see that you need TLC.
Tender love and care she said,
no Shy what you need is true loving carefully.
Shy got quite her heart sped up her hand gripped the sheet her throat went dry. Shy you still there he asked. She swallowed yes she whispered. Winston's voice lowered almost to a whisper I'm not going to let go until you let go.
I don't want this to be the same as you're use to let's make it everything that you ever wanted. Things that you don't dream of
better than better Shy I want you to be loved and see everything that is meant to feel.
Those dreams that you mentioned.
Most think that it's a dream a fairytale but true hearts know the difference. I feel you when you talk I watch your care fulness you want something that unexplainable.
It's rare but if your heart is true mine is willing to let go and let yours in.
One day at a time ok Shy nothing fancy
nothing out of the ordinary just what you want now and always. Goodnight
His words caressed Shy she felt his meaning every word. Goodnight she said.
