"Really? You don't hope he'll love you back?" Chantelle asked doubtfully.
"Of course! Life's too short. We shouldn't waste it," Thea said. "Isn't it lucky just to find someone we truly love?"
"Can we really think that way?" Chantelle asked softly.
"I believe we can!" Thea said with a big smile.
"Thea, Daniel gave me all his properties," Chantelle said. "He even wants to give me all his money. Do you think he's starting to fall for me?"
"What? Did he really give you all his properties? Is he crazy? Oh my gosh!" Thea shouted, almost jumping up. She nearly spilled the sauce from the ladle in her hand.
"He even gave me all the money in his bank account last night," Chantelle shrugged her shoulders and watched Thea's shocked face. She hesitated a bit before speaking.
"Damn it, Chantie! Can't you see it? What do you think it means when a man gives you everything he owns? Do you want him to dig out his heart and make a ring for you just to prove he loves you?"
