My Flash 12
Enzo has been gone for three days. He’s been calling Cora and asking about my welfare, but he never asks to speak with me.” Like right now–he’s talking to Cora on the phone, but he didn’t ask to speak with me. I don’t know why, but I’m missing him.” *…I’ll pass on the message,” Cora said and hung up. I rolled my eyes when Cora said that, because I already knew what she was going to say. She approached me with a smile. “Mr. Enzo said you shouldn’t forget to eat and sleep on time.” “When is he coming back?” I asked. “He didn’t say.

Don’t tell me I’m falling in love with him! I haven’t known him for long–why am I falling for him? *Get dressed. I’ll take you somewhere, and your impression of him might change,” Cora said. “I don’t wanna.“[ “Please, ma’am. It’s necessary I take you there.” I narrowed my eyes, wondering why she said it was necessary to take me there.>> “Mr. Enzo isn’t a bad man. He just doesn’t know how to explain things to you.” Any more refusal from me might make me look stubborn and unreasonable, so I agreed.} “I’ll go freshen up,” I said, then headed to my room.2…
