It was Christmas day at the Durance family home and Halle was so excited. Not to open the gifts. Believe it or not, it was not that important to her. She was excited to hear from Nathan. They had been having steady conversation ever since the mismailed letter.
Truth was, he was growing on her. Halle didn't mind admitting it to herself that she liked him a lot. If he weren't entrapped with his beloved Muffin, Halle wouldn't mind getting to know him on an intimate level. But he was and she couldn't.
Who was she kidding? Even if he wasn't entrapped by her, who's to say he would consider her in that way. After all, from the way Nathan wrote, Halle had deduced that he was confident in his writing and from this, she could guess that he could have any woman he wanted, so why would he want her?
