He obviously cared for her and wanted to make something work between them but she was afraid but also wanted that too. For the longest time she just always thought she was better off alone and being a single mother, for one thing she would never bring any man around her child which was why she would take her over to her mother's place when she did extra things for money or had long days at work to where she would come home late and by then her daughter would be in bed. It was better that she spent days like these with her grandmother and Ivy was very protective and loving with her child, some things she did weren't good but she was a good mother regardless.<span style="color: #000040">"You really think highly of me..but you still don't know me Jerry.."</span>She sighed lightly then looked down at his hand when he touched it in a soothing manner, she really was starting to like him.<br/><br/>As good as things were going now she felt like he would leave her like all the other's soon enough. He only knew a portion of her and he really didn't know the true reason why she brought him here to begin with. He would be upset with her and leave even if things had changed over time for her and she realized she did care and didn't even want him for his money. This was supposed to be something with no feelings attached but it didn't go as planned, nothing in life really ever did. It wasn't like she took men home with her often, only when things were desperate and she really needed the money, she never did it without a condom and she was cautious with it but it all landed in the category of prostitution or escorting as some would use to make it sound better.<br/><br/><span style="color: #000040">"If that makes you feel better about me..but anyway my daughter is with my grandmother right now. Since I had a long shift I didn't want her to be here by herself which would be pretty dumb to do with a toddler. But she likes being with her grandmother, I dont let other people babysit her I dont trust people especially these days."</span>Ivy still didn't know what Jerry had originally been doing or if he knew more about her and if so, well she wasn't the only one keeping secrets after all now was she? His may have not been as bad as hers but it'd still upset her a bit.
