He was really bothered by how she was acting;
''Is anything bothering you? '' He asked, his brows creasing with concern.
Diana sat up imdiately, realizing that he had noticed her sad deanor.
''No haha, I'm sorry if I'm too quiet, I'm just feeling a little sleepy that's all, I just want to get ho and have a nice rest, today had been stressful.''
''Oh, okay. '' Michael knew that it wasn't what was bothering her but he did not pry anymore, it was obvious she didn't want to talk about it.
When he got to her ho, the rain had stopped falling; he opened the door for her to step out.
''Thanks for today, at least I get to co back ho early; '' She smiled, taking off the coat and giving it to him; ''and thanks for the coat too. ''
''You're welco. ''
Michael took the coat from her but did not move.
Diana stared at him for a mont; ''um, drive ho safely, goodnight. '���
She said and he nodded then she turned to leave, but then she stopped and looked at him.
Should she ask him about it?
Should she ask him about what he said over the phone? Diana's throat dried at that thought and her lips opened but she quickly shut it and smiled, ''goodnight; '' she said instead and walked away briskly.
What use was it? If she asked him, he was just going to manufacture a lie; so there was no need asking him. She would just reduce their closeness so there was no need for him to co to see her often as he used to. She would keep him distant; he was not worth having as a close friend, not at all.
Diana felt sad at that thought. It hurt her that she was going to do this but she didn't have a choice, he was not a friend. If she kept him by her side, she would just be digging her own pit.
Michael stared at the figure walking away from him as though he was a pest and he blinked painfully. Even without saying, he knew he was the reason for her soberness. Right now, she wanted to say sothing to him, but she had stopped herself, he wondered what was so bad that she had stopped herself from saying it.
Michael stood still wondering where he had gone wrong, but he couldn't even think of anything, all he had been to her was caring and kind. Or was she thinking he was playing with her?
Michael's eyes turned to the building. He didn't want to believe it himself, but he actually liked this woman. Whether it was her innocence, her face, her smile, her laughter, every single thing about her made him happy. And he just wanted to be close to her all the ti.
Earlier, he didn't have any eting around the area; he just went to pick her up because she ntioned she didn't go with her driver. He realized he liked her a lot but he did not want her to feel he was too forward or that he just wanted to take advantage of her, so he took it slow. He wanted them to be on the sa page before he told her how he felt, but right now, he didn't know where this was heading to.
Michael heaved a sigh and entered the car driving out of the compound.

''congrats baby!! Jeez! The whole internet is exploding! Congrats dear, I'm so happy for you. ''
Claire called Tiana to congratulate them on their marriage announcent. They ca back to the states a week ago, and Nicklaus announced it a day ago. Tiana's following that was just a asly 5k skyrocketed to 100k in just one day, and the next day she was topping 500k followings.
The internet was hot with the news because Nicklaus was one of the most handso bachelors in California (*guys, I want you to picture soone a little more handso than Zayn Malik, author just started crushing, haha* );
So congratulated her, while so just followed to troll on her; and before long, they had already dug out her past and how she was from a poor background and called her a gold digger. Tiana expected it, so she didn't think much of it; she just kept away from reading the comnts and checking the news.
Many companies were offering her contracts already, dia stations asking for interviews, Tiana didn't want to go to interviews or co out to the public now, so she just stayed indoors, ate, and face ti with her husband when he was at work.
''Thanks, dear, everything is happening so fast. ''
''yeah, I can see, just hold up okay, when is the wedding going to be, girllll, I can't wait! ''
''Haha, it's going to be very soon, we haven't fixed the date yet. ''
''Alright take care of yourself okay? ''
''Yeah, you too, bye ''
Tiana ended the call and slumped back on the bed, her phone has been buzzing with calls since that morning, her lips hurt from smiling and saying the sa thing over and over again.
She clicked on her gallery and scrolled up slowly, she smiled when she saw the photos she took of Nicklaus last night while he was sleeping. In the picture, he was hugging her around her torso, and his head resting peacefully on her stomach. He looked very cute as he slept and she couldn't help taking a picture of him.
A thought ca to her mind and she clicked on her IG and posted the picture with a caption;
'Hubby is so cute while he sleeps, I just can't get enough of this face' and with a blushing emoji, she tagged him to it and quickly posted it;
She grinned at herself and she clicked on his profile;
He had 5.2 million followers but he was following only her. Tiana's face reddened when she saw it. It made her feel so damn special. He didn't post much, she wondered while he had so many followings.
Suddenly her phone vibrated in her hand and she laughed when she saw it was Nicklaus calling;
She quickly swiped up and switched it to video call;
''Baby! ''
