My rival? I don't understand, Craig is not interested in her. Zoe said, Jane laughed. You are very funny, you should ask the man beside you. She said, Zoe look at Craig.

We should listen and stop talking. Gregory said, trying to keep the conversation in check.

Every other talk didn't fall on Craig nor Gregory's ear, they were carried away with the thought of Whitney and Cathy.

The presenter announced that they we go on break, when the conference dismissed, Cathy saw Whitney going into the restroom.

Who are you? Zoe asked like some frightening cat. I am Roe Rod and you are? I don't make friends with my enemy, if you are not a friend to my love then you are not my friend.

Go slow, you should not be overly defensive. Roe, you should stay away from me and that goes for your wife.

She dart back, Roe smile, watching her leave. Whitney just arrived with Casper. You should rest. Casper tells her but she pulled his hand. What is it?

What was that for? Why did you kiss me in front of those people?

That boy was drooling over you or you are interested in him?

Casper stop been annoying, I am done with love. She said grabbing her shoe and goes to her room, Casper is frustrated, he too decided to shower and rest, Whitney get her phone and call George

My baby, how is the conference?

It was fine, we meet again.

Who? George asked her. I saw Gregory, I know I was going to meet him but I never thought he was going to affect me like this.

Come sister, just don't give him attention and if it's too much for you to handle, just let me know, I could tell Casper to let you passed it.

No, I will be fine and are you back? No, I am not, I will be done by weekend and I am sure, you will be back then.

Yes big brother and take care of yourself. Whitney said, the line went off. God! Please help me on this.

Whitney is tense, she can't bear to see Gregory with another, all this time, she felt she is done with love but seeing Gregory again just confirmed that she still wants him.

Even though, she has plans to make him pay something in her heart still want him, to stay close to her, to cuddle her, she missed everything concerning this man.
