“You know, I really did think about doing exactly that…” Elizabeth said before smiling our way.
My mouth immediately fell open and I was speechless at how easy-going she sounded. I had thought that the matter was a grave one, and based on the devastated state that she was in the last time that she came over to Ace’s place, I thought that she must be having such a hard time deciding between her career advancement and the preservation of her love life. Apparently, that didn’t seem to be the case. What happened since that day to cause such a change in her, I had no idea and couldn’t even begin to imagine.
Ace also seemed surprised at her reaction. After telling her so many times for her to break up with Kyle, it seemed like he was getting something akin to a positive response for the first time. I wished silently in my mind that she would explain to us what was going on and how she managed to reach that conclusion.
