Episode-421   Alisa’s POV:                       I am concerned, Edwin didn’t talked since the dinner. He straight went to the study and that’s it…. I know he is angry, when he is not angry?... he acts like he got anger on discount.. Yes, I took risk bringing Logan to the dinner. I thought that was necessary…. But yes, I should have hinted Edwin about it. I think Logan is sweet kid…. Edwin is being overprotective and unreasonable.     I walked in the study with goal to ease his anger, so he won’t do anything stupid. I saw Edwin with his glass of alcohol, he was holding it to his head as if he is easing a head with the ice in the glass. His closed eyes opened to see me as I caught his attention. I saw him closing his eyes again.    He is not in good mood, I will say with age he became more stern to his thought. And I became more free and bolt in this marriage of lot years.    I walked to him, then placed my hand on his shoulder, comforting  him saying, “It’s late…. let’s go to bed…” He  got up, shrugging my hand off his shoulder. He walked to the window as he sipped his drink. I knew it! He is angry on me too.    I stood beside him, I said, “I think we both passed the age for silent treatments… it’s too childish now…”  He sipped his drink again, not sparing me a glace. I said, “you can talk to me…”    He said cold, “What is use of talk when you never listen?”   I looked at him out of words, He turned to me as he said, “Today…. you made a mistake…”    I said to him almost annoyed, “Edwin…. come on… You are overreacting… it was just a dinner and Logan is a decent guy…. he is perfect for Evelyn…” He said to me arguing, “He has a reason to hurt us!!!... no matter what you think of the past, but it’s true he blamed us all his life for something we had no control off…. he hated us!!!... you trust him with our only daughter?”     I sigh, I tried to control myself, I touched Edwin’s arm as I said, “He will not hurt our daughter… I know it…”     Edwin scoffed saying, “How you know that?.. I never knew you could mind read?” he is using sarcasm… that’s it!   I said out, “Yes!!!! I know it…. because I trust my daughters choice… instead you and your idiot sons with no manners and understanding… at least he is not like you all!!” Edwin looked at me in disbelief.    I licked my lips in frustration, I sigh. I added, “I know… As a Dad you might think nobody is good enough for her… She is a perfect child, and you were always treating her like she is your life…. and now you are hesitating to share her.  And you have this weird need to be her superhero, the most important in her life… and now you are scared that it’s going to Logan…”   Edwin scoffed, I added, “I know I am right…” Edwin said, “Every women thinks she is always right….”   I said back instant, “And every father goes through these fear when his daughter is in love…. But he has to understand she needs love or she will be lonely….”  I saw his face worried. I tangled my and around his arm, as I said, “We want her happy… regardless anything, she will be always your little Princess….” He didn’t said anything stood there in deep thought, I rested my head against his shoulder hoping he will understand.    Evelyn’s POV:                       I sigh as I wanted to throw my phone off the bed, I am just staring at it since morning. Waiting…. waiting if he reach out…. it’s weird… I don’t want him to reach out….  Logan… you are making me crazy.   But he is not calling… or text…. he said he will see me…. is he having second thoughts….   I screamed in frustration. I whispered, “No…. No…. I am getting distracted again….. this is not me… Evelyn wake up!”     2 hours later,     I internally scolded myself, I came myself to Logan’s house. I really have lost my mind. I ringed the doorbell. I waited till someone open the door. But he said he will contact me and here am I making fool of myself like a pathetic person.  The door opened and I heard Logan’s voice, “Evelyn…” He sounded excited, I looked at his face. I saw him with glasses, a white shirt and black pants. He looks kind of messy but still handsome.    I walked in his massive place, But I still saw his living room in mess, papers, his laptop, files stack… like he was working. He hurriedly tried make them neat as possible. I heard him, “Sorry….. this mess…. I needed to do this urgently, or actually planned today for a date….” I noticed the coat on the sofa, some flowers…. my favorite flowers.  I avoided them all, I noticed the he made place for me to sit. I sat there as he said, “Anyways…. just give me an hour then we can go for a nice dinner…..”  I noticed he was typing furiously, I said, “Maybe… everyone has priorities….” His moments stopped, His face turned  to me.  I smirked and said, “You have some and so do I….”   Logan looked frustrated by my taunt, I smiled and whispered, “Am I right?”    He licked his lips looking away, He then turns to me and said, “Evelyn… You are my Priority….. I cannot stop thinking about you… I love you….”    I am not here to fight, but I am really bad at forgiving or anything. I said to him serious, “Logan... I don’t like seeing you in danger….. and maybe I am the danger here….. this relation is… is not good…. not safe…. and”   I looked away as I didn’t found words, I pulled myself from being too emotional. I don’t want to cry.   Logan said, “Eve… you are mistaking.. I am not in danger or anything… stop being like this…”    I turned to him as I said stern, “Logan you are an idiot…” He smiled as he pulled me to himself, He whispered, “No… I am quite smart… I have a pretty girlfriend, idiots don’t have that…” He chuckled as I chuckled with him, I couldn’t stop myself from kissing him.
