We got out of the car and Blake drove off " why did he drive away?"  I asked.
" I stay there," he pointed at a big mansion that my grandmother from my mother is side liked, it was a bit far from Tina is place. " When did you shift?" I asked.
" Day after you became my girlfriend," he answered.
" Oh, ok." Is all I could say.
" Bye goodnight," he turned around to leave. I suddenly stopped him " I have a question for you. Do you really like me?" I asked in a soft voice not louder than a whisper. Zack did not answer right away "Do you want to come to my house for a little while?" He asked. I immediately became alert and wondered why he was calling me. I looked back at Tina is house, I did not really feel like going back. " Okay."

I followed him to his house and looked around as we walked together " do you like the house?"

ZACK'S POV
" My grandmother liked it," she answered as we entered the house. I allowed her to admire the house for a while and debated whether I should tell her that this house was under her name. In the end I chose not to tell her and do it another time. She sat down on the black couch while I brought her tea to drink. " What was your question?" I asked. " I was wondering what you meant when you said you liked me in the car. Our relationship is fake. You know that right?"
"This fake relationship is fake," I answered her. I was not the type to hide my emotions. If she wanted to know, I was going to tell her. " Do you remember the party, the night I first  saw you?" She nodded her head " I fell in love with you there,"
" So was it love at first sight?" She asked leaning towards me amusedly. I sighed before nodding my head slowly. She burst out in laughter and bounced around happily " hahaha wow! Zack Sullivan fell in love with me at first time. Hahaha..." I stared at her gravely and watched her laugh. I did not expect Love at first sight either. " Are you telling the truth?"she asked. She started laughing abruptly and stopped after a few seconds. She suddenly stood up and looked up at me " it is getting late I am going to leave now,bye." She ran out of the house.

IRIS'S POV
I stopped laughing and found myself in a difficult situation because I did not have any feelings for him. I said
bye and ran out of the house.
" Riana where have you been?" Tina asked. I told what had happened.
" Wait, wait, wait so he made this dress for you. He has really fallen for you. Do you have any feelings for him?" She asked.
" No, not yet. It is just hard to believe when I have already been heartbroken." I answered
" Take your time."  She answered before I went to my room and carefully took off the dress to wear comfier clothes. I hugged  the dress, went on the bed and thought about the events that had happened today.

ZACK'S POV
I was not sure if she was going to accept me or not. I wanted to call her, but maybe she was already asleep. Before I went to change into my sleeping attire when I heard my phone ring. It was Iris , I wondered if she was going to respond to what I said"hello... Is anyone there?"  She said in her beautiful voice. " Hello is anything wrong,"
" Why did you take long to answer?" She asked.
" I was thinking about you," I said truthfully.
" Yeah," she said
" Yeah," I repeated.
" Oh,ok..... Um sorry for running out of the house like that." I could hear the nervousness in her voice.
" It is fine. I put you in a difficult situation."
" I do not have any feelings for you. It's just hard to open my heart after what I experienced."
" Oh," I said sadly." Give me a chance, I know I can make you fall in love with me."
" Ok, let me help you out. I like rich, handsome men who can spoil me rotten."she said happily
" I need to work extra hard in the future for my future wife." I smiled.
" What about the handsome part?" She asked.
" Am I not handsome enough?" I answered her question with another question.
" Your handsomeness does not much my beauty, if I am going to be your wife our children have to be handsome and beautiful."
" What can I do to get more handsome?"
" That is for you to figure out. Anyway I will late my persuer go to sleep now, bye." She said and hunged up.

IRIS'S POV
Honestly, I was too nervous to talk to Zack, but I just had to do that it otherwise I would not have the  courage to look at him. I felt moved with what he said, but I was not  going to make it  easy for him. Who knows if he was just trying to use me. I didn't even know how I mentioned children.

I woke up with the mood to go shopping. I asked Tina if she could accompany me and she agreed. I went to look for what to wear in my closet. When I opened it, I found it was filled clothes while the others where at Zack is place because of this simple thing. I was no longer in the mood to shop. I still had to go since I already told Tina. " Today we will be shopping for you I'm afraid I have too many clothes because of Zack," I explained.
" Then you will treat me today, deal."
" Deal,"

After shopping and having lunch, Tina went home to do some work, she was opening a make-up industry and since she had just started. She had a lot of work to do on the other hand I  had nothing to do. While I was walking I saw a man try to steal from an old lady who looked like she was in her late sixtees, early seventies.
