My Baby's Daddy

Did this man insist on kissing her for a full ten minutes?

The passage of time remained ambiguous, but when Zacharias finally released Shirley, his breath was heavy, and his eyes bore a dangerous intensity, akin to a tiger ready to pounce. He delicately touched her forehead and uttered, “Go back to your room. Don’t come over again.” He struggled to contain the inner turmoil, attempting to release her. The fear of losing control over his sanity haunted him, uncertain of the consequences if he succumbed to the primal instincts within.

She was also obedient, but her legs were a bit weak. She whispered, “Good night.” After speaking, she quickly left. Back in her room, Shirley lay on the bed, her heart racing. Thoughts of intimately kissing Zacharias consumed her mind.

While reflecting on it, she sensed a profound emptiness within, as if she yearned for his embrace.

She immediately covered her flushed face and buried her head in embarrassment. What was wrong with her? How could she think of such things?

The next morning, she asked her father to send her passport. Although the distance was far, the delivery was fast, so it arrived on the second night.

Zacharias arranged for her to complete the necessary procedures for going abroad.
