Chapter 32
Lana
I arrive back at home the next afternoon. Iâm outside, staring at the stairs I should be climbing. I should go up and inside my apartment. Get back to reality. My parentâs place was nice; I was babied and held like I was little again. I feel grounded, but I also feel like Iâm missing something in life.
Iâm missing family life. My parents have a loving relationship. My mom touches my dad subtly throughout the day, and my dad gives my mom a hundred kisses, at least. They both back each other up. They gave me a model of how to be an amazing couple.
Once I walk through the door, itâs going to be apparent Iâm all alone again.
âFuck it,â I whisper to myself. I walk up to the door with Queenie right by me. A beautiful flower arrangement is waiting for me at the door. A small smile creeps up on my face.
I go over to the flowers. Theyâre all yellow lilies mixed with red roses. The red is nice, but itâs the yellow that stands out. I find a note after admiring them.
Sunshine,
You deserve the world, but Iâll start with these.
Canât wait to see your beautiful face again.
Xoxo,
Grant
I pet Queenie. âHey, girl! You want to go for a run? Lord knows I need it.â She wags her tail and whines in response. Thatâs a yes.
I go to get my running shoes. Iâm already in sweats; it should be my uniform at this point. As Iâm getting prepared, a knock at the door sounds. Iâm hoping itâs Grant. I go over to it and peer through the peep hole. Itâs not Grant, but it looks like another delivery.
I open the door and the delivery man asks, âLana Love?â
âThatâs me.â
âYour name is cool. It sounds like youâre a porn star.â
I look at him like heâs an idiot.
âAnyway, I have a delivery for you.â He fidgets from foot to foot, holding a ginormous arrangement.
âOkay. I can take it.â Another vase of flowers, but this one is full of sunflowers, with a few red roses mixed in.
âThis isnât the only one. Iâll be back with more.â
âMore?â My eyebrows raise to my hairline.
He nods and then heads back downstairs. This is a surprise. Itâs like he knew I was beginning to feel sorry for myself again. I find the note sticking out of this one too.
Sunshine,
The clouds are out, so I figured you needed some brightness.
You bring me sunshine, so I wanted to return the favor.
Xoxo,
Grant
The delivery driver brings in five more bouquets of flowers, all yellow. Thereâs a bouquet for every surface in my place. Grant has obviously thought this out. I have to admit, itâs the cutest thing anyone has ever done. Iâm glad to see red roses are also in all the bouquets. Yellow means friendship, but Grant made sure there were red roses, equating to him liking me as more than a friend.
âI have one more for you. I almost overlooked it; it doesnât match everything else I brought in,â he says as he disappears to retrieve the odd item.
