Chapter 14
"Theresa!?" the name came out from his mouth once more.
Was that her? It had to be, they looked so alike. He couldn't let her get away from him again, he would suceed in getting her back. Theresa's car had been silver, he looked around quickly seeing if he could still spot her car and he did. Fox sped up, going through all the red lights, not caring if he got a speeding ticket. This was the love of his life, a speeding ticket was nothing compared to that.
Fox saw her car park at a diner and walk in. He followed and caught up with her. He casually walked in as if nothing had happened all this years. He saw her at a table and walked up to her.
"Theresa..." it felt nice to say her name again in person.
Theresa was still in shock, she had thought she had seen Fox beside her in the car. That had scared her, she couldn't bare to see him again. If that was Fox, a lot would happen. Through the years, she had tried her best to move on with her life and get over him, but it was hard. He would hold a huge amount of her heart forever.
She had went to the diner to meet with someone when she heard a familiar voice. Somehow too familar, she was afraid to around. It couldn't be him, the world wasn't that small. Slowly she turned her head to face the person.
"Theresa..." he said again.
It was her, Theresa, his long lost angel. He sucked in a breath, she was still as stunning as ever. The amazing eyes, gorgeous smile and delicate hair. He fought the urge to just kiss her. Maybe fate was on their side.
Theresa forced on a smile, Fox...her ex-husband whom she still loved was standing right beside her, she didn't know how to react. Her mind was running was confusion, what was she going to say? She stood up and gave him a small hug. Fox closed his eyes remembering how well she fit in his arms, she pulled away quickly, disappointing him.
Fox motioned to the sit in front of her.
"Is it alright of I sit down for a while?"
Theresa hesitated, she was meeting someone here, but there was still time so she agreed.
"Sure." So far so good, fox thought. Theresa wasn't showing any hurt emotion. Fox took a seat and noticed an adorable little girl sitting beside Theresa.
"Who's that?" he asked smiling at the child.
"That's my daughter Sarah."
Daughter.....she couldn't be his could she? He didn't ask more questions though, he wanted to make Theresa feel comfortable. But Sarah just reminded him so much of himself, blonde hair, brown eyes and a cute smile.
"So Fox, how have you been?"
What could he say? I've been dying without you?'..that wouldn't work.
"I'm great, been enjoying life."
Theresa was shocked, he was great? He supposed to be begging on his knees to make her take him back.
"That's nice."
"And you?"
"Pretty good, I've got a good family."
Family?! Was she married again?
Fox cleared his throat.
"Where's little Ethan?"
"He's at preschool."
Theresa was really nervous, things were getting weird again. Luckily the person she was waiting for arrived, she quickly stood up. Fox was confused, where was she going? Leaving him? No...she wouldn't forget her daughter. But then he saw...Theresa leaned in to gave a man a long kiss. His heart broke, she had moved on. He took a glance at her hand and there was an exquisite ring, she was married.
"Fox, this is my husband Jacob."
Jacob smiled and took hold of Fox's hand. When he let go, he took a seat beside Theresa and placed Sarah on his lap. Fox looked at all three of them, a happy family, four including little Ethan. If Danielle hadn't ruined his life, he could be the one sitting beside Theresa, holding Sarah, but that wasn't the case.
Theresa smiled evilly. She had seen the hurt flash in his eyes, she hoped Fox was jealous.
"How did you guys meet?" Jacob asked.
"Oh, Fox is an old friend of mine." he noticed that Theresa didn't mention, husband,lover in the sentence.
"You've been in Harmony all these years?" Fox asked.
"No, I moved to California few years ago, where I met Jacob." they smiled at each other lovingly which made Fox want to throw up. "We got married, I got pregnant and Sarah was born, plus Jacob loves Little Ethan, we started having trouble in California because Jacob lost his job and couldn't get another one. Two weeks ago, we moved back to Harmony to see if we could get any luck here."
"I see, look, Jacob, I can get you a Job at Crane Industries, where I work. The pay is pretty good." Fox surprised himself by saying those words. But if it meant, he would be able to see Theresa more, he didn't mind at all.
He saw Jacob's eyes widen.
"Wow, you can't be serious, I don't want to have pity on me or anything."
"No, no, not at all, beside we need a new worker. So are you up for it?"
Jacob quietly discussed this matter with Theresa, she obviously didn't want him to take the job. But there was no choice.
"I'll take it, thanks."
"No problem, if possible, can you write down your number and where you live?"
Jacob grabbed a nearby napkin and scribbled all the needed information and gave it to Fox. Great, he thought, now he had Theresa's phone number and where she lived. Perhaps, soon, he would be paying some visits.
"Thanks, I'll call you soon but I'm sure you'll the job, I'll make sure. You need the money, you have a family to support which as I don't." Fox said.
Theresa was surprised, Fox was single. He didn't have a family, she knew it wouldn't be hard for him, since he had the looks and the money. But she knew Fox hadn't been waiting for her all these years.
"We have to go, thanks again Fox." Jacob said sincerely.
"Bye Fox." Theresa mumbled.
They walked out leaving Fox by himself, he smiled, maybe this was a chance to get Theresa back.
