Chapter 25

Two weeks had passed since Gisele had recovered. She couldn’t remember yet, but if she had really fallen in love with Slate, she understood why. He was so sweet and had been really kind and understanding toward her.

Gisele knew his patience had been tried a few times, but he didn’t show it or tried to control it.

“What are you smiling at, Gigi? Is it my Daddy that made you smile?” Callie asked, looking thoughtful.

“Yes, honey, and you too,” Gisele answered, smiling at her.

Callie smiled when Gisele said that. Callie was a sweet kid who loved her father – and Gisele – very much. She was so funny and ‘had a flair for the dramatic.’

“Gigi, will you marry Daddy someday and become my Mommy?” Callie asked out of the blue.

Gisele was at a loss on how to answer Callie. She didn’t want to break her heart, but she also could not say she was going to marry a stranger.
