EDWINA
It wasn't even the second date yet, and my betrayer of a heart was already aching for the presence of Kieran.
Or maybe it was aching at the absense of Kieran.
We have exchanged a few texts since that marvelous time we spent together at the restaurant, and the sight of his name always brought a smile to my lips every time.
I knew I was wavering, even when I knew the reasonable thing would be to keep my heart sealed off.
But it was hard. All the feelings I had harboured for him over the past years was finally bubbling to the surface.
And try as I might, it was hard to turn them off.
So I fought a constant battle, trying not to think about him while unable to stop thinking about him.
It was weekend though, and I had just gotten back from dropping Noah off at the regular venue for his play group.
My son had joined several peer groups at school, and it made him more creative and interested in his education.
