Gianna’s POV
I stopped retracing backwards as Greg suddenly halted in his tracks, he became stiff and cold like an ice bag.
My heart skipped a beat.
“What has gone weary?” I wondered.
Suddenly I saw Greg go down on his knees, tears began streaking down his eyes and he started whimpering bitterly.
What! Jeez! Greg? Like the almighty Greg? The shopping bags I was holding instantly fell off my hands and stood on the floor.
I was startled and confused, I couldn’t comprehend what was going on.
I opened my mouth to utter some words but nothing came forth. I had run out of words, and so I ended up closing my mouth.
“Gianna, if you will please forgive me and my foolishness. I did the worst thing ever, which a man shouldn’t do to his woman. I did you wrong, I am a monster, cruel and heartless, but please forgive me”, his voice was as soft as ever.
Greg continued whimpering, still on his knees, I suddenly became weak and didn’t know what to do.
This was my fate right? I had to accept it, hating him will do me no good.
So slowly, I walked up to him and placed his head on my tummy and instantly, as if he had been waiting for it, he embraced me tightly, wrapping his arms around me.
“It is okay Greg, I am not mad at you anymore, I have forgiven you from the depths of my heart”, I finally found my words, even surprised at myself for saying that.
Was I really not mad at him again? Have I really forgiven him from the depths of my heart huh? Well, I think I have.
Greg sobbed even more, still holding me in his embrace.
Whoever that had seen him right in that state, would never believe that it was actually the same Greg Starr who acts tough and ruthless in front of everyone.
At that state, right there kneeling in front of me and sobbing, he looked more like a teen asking for mercy from his mom.
“Thank you so much Gianna”, he muttered and I pulled him up from the ground and he stood facing me, we were now both staring intensely at each other.
I brought my hands to his face and wiped his tears, he was still staring at me, and I kind of felt so shy.
“You are pretty”, he complimented and I blushed hard, real hard.
He chuckled heartily.
“Let me say this to you Gianna. I have unknowingly fallen for you while hurting you, that I can’t imagine me without you. I have always been scared of my feelings for you, because I know loving you will bring you nothing but trouble, but right now baby, I can’t help it anymore”, he admitted.
Jeez! I quivered and shook. Was this really Greg standing here and saying this to me? The most handsome being I had ever seen on planet earth saying this sweet things to me, oh my! I couldn’t believe my ears.
I was still in my thoughts when he gathered me in his arms and laid me softly on the bed. I didn’t resist, I didn’t fight back, I just obeyed and did his biddings like a meek lamb. I mean it was really a happy moment, why the hell should I terminate it?
After I had settled on the bed, he hovered above me and slowly brought down his head and placed his lips on mine, engaging me in a kiss, creasing, sucking and kissing me, it was the most tender kiss I had ever witnessed.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
