“Are you sure you don’t want to come home?” Olivia asked.
“Nah, not right now, at least. I still have a lot to do to prepare.”
Olivia scoffed. “And what if she never comes to you?”
“She will, Ma. That girl loves me, and I love her too.”
“I don’t deny that, but love isn’t everything.”
“You’re right, but it’s a foundation and a start. What I’m doing might not make sense to you, but it does to me. Sade is mine, and I have to be prepared for when I get her back.”
“All right, baby. If that’s what you want, I support you. I just hope you don’t end up disappointing yourself by waiting for her for too long.”
Dante laughed softly with a shake of his head. “She watched me marry her sister, Ma. I’m going to wait for as long as it takes.”
