All too late for his love (Willow and Zayn)

Chapter 55

Zayn was briefly lost in thought. In that moment of reverie, he felt he had returned to those carefree days of youth.

A delicate young girl was nestled in his arms like a soft kitten. “Zayn, I really want to be your wife! Will you marry me?”

What did he say back then?

He had said yes. “I do! Willow, in this life, I only want you.”

But alas, the person had long since changed beyond recognition.

The girl he had longed to marry cruelly killed their child, hired thugs to break his legs and sought comfort in another man’s arms.

His vows were nothing but an unwavering commitment from him alone.

“Zayn, don’t you want to marry me?” Skyler couldn’t help but feel nervous when Zayn left her question unanswered for so long

“Zayn, it’s okay. I’ve said before, even if you don’t want to marry me, I won’t blame you…”

“Skyler, I will marry you!” Zayn interrupted Skyler’s words. “Skyler, next week, let’s get engaged!”

Engaged?

Skyler’s heart soared with joy. She hugged Zayn tightly around the neck and leaned in for a kiss,

“Mr. Dawson, it’s not necessary,” she said politely.

“Willow, whatever you have to say, you can tell me over lunch! You’re so thin, you mustn’t skip meals!”

With that, Kenan reached for Willow’s hand again.

“Mr. Dawson, I’ve been married before.”

Kenan’s hand froze in place, and after a brief moment of shock, he forced a smile. “Willow, what are you joking about? How old are you? Have graduate

“Mr. Dawson, I have a three–and–a–half–year–old child ”

Willow continued, enunciating each word, “I’m 22 years old this year, long past being a student.

“I know you’ve been kind to me, but I’m not worthy of you. I believe you’ll meet a better girl in the future, someone who will bring you happi fulfillment.”

Willow felt an indescribable sadness when she saw the pain in Kenan’s eyes, but she still turned away, stepping further from him.

She wasn’t particularly maternal by nature, but seeing Kenan upset gave her a suffocating feeling, much like she couldn’t bear to see Aaron unhaj

She thought that by revealing she had a child, Kenan would surely want nothing more to do with her.
