An emotional hold
The breakfast was a quiet one as Tabitha's mind was preoccupied with thoughts about Silas. There was a time when Donald was the only one on her mind, when she couldn't stop thinking about him, but now, it was another man.
Why? Why was she thinking about him when she felt nothing but lust towards him?
Tabitha then decided to erase thoughts about Silas from her head, but when she raised her head, she caught him staring at her.
Silas didn't look away when Tabitha caught him staring; he just smiled and gestured for her to continue eating.
Tabitha's heart began to swell, causing her to have a little difficulty in breathing. She lowered her head and continued to eat.
'What is Silas doing to me?' Tabitha wondered as she made sure she finished her meal.
