Anna Jadwin and Sanna walked behind him, sure that he had noticed her.
Because of her footsteps, he had said he could tell it was her…
But Wayne Bailey did not turn around, his pace even, while Michelle Harrington kept chattering on without stop.
Anna Jadwin remained silent, even though she knew in her heart that Wayne Bailey could not possibly have the slightest interest in Michelle Harrington, she did not want to see this situation. The exclusivity and uniqueness of love were so strong.
"Anna." Mr. Jadwin stood at the entrance of the restaurant, as if he'd been waiting specifically for her.
Anna Jadwin steeled herself and quickened her pace to overtake Wayne Bailey, running to Mr. Jadwin's side: "Daddy… were you looking for me?"
"You look pale, are you sick?" Mr. Jadwin held her hand as though he had a thousand words to say.
Wayne Bailey's footsteps were passing by her side.
