By the time I got home, I was completely soaked through my clothes. Daniel took one look at me and shook his head.
"Why do you do this to yourself?" he sighed as he handed me a blanket. "You can always say no. You don't always have to push yourself each time because Ms. Jackson will always understand."
I thanked him for the blanket while I shivered. "I'm not like you Dan," I said as I made my way upstairs. "Not everyone can always say what's on their minds without disappointing others." I entered my bedroom and went straight to the bathroom where I stripped out all the wet clothes and then got under the shower head, turning on the hot water. I kept smiling to myself as I remembered what had happened during the day. It was weird to think that we were back to being comfortable around each other. I knew that I still had a lot to figure out and one of those things being my feelings for Patience.
