Chapter 41: CHAPTER 41- ATTRACTIVE

AUTHORS POV

SYDNEY TIED HER HAIR into a ponytail and left some strands to fall by the sides. She plugged in her coiling iron and coiled the strands falling by the sides.

She applied light makeup and put a considerable distance between herself and the mirror so she could take in her appearance.

A flicker of sadness engulfed her heart seeing herself. She looked young and happy in the blue dress. Did she have any right to be happy? Wasn't she meant to be grieving over her broken marriage instead of dressing like a carefree college girl?

Did she deserve to look beautiful?

Her heart began to pace and she clutched her chest. No matter how much she denied it, Gabriel did make her happy and he made her forget she was supposed to be crying 24/7 over Gavin.

She hated the way he made her feel. She was scared of letting go of Gavin so easily. They had spent more than a decade together, so she should grieve for more than a year!

Sydney closed her eyes and shook off the thoughts.
