After 6 months

I was seeing a guy back in feb for about two like as friends and we just drifted apart,he got back with his ex that he has a child with but didn’t work out again after a month then July he contacts me and says you know I’m single again and i says I didn’t know that,i went to see him in mid July but was only for a hookup that all it was and i was fine with that.Now in August I wonder why he wrote to me as I hadn’t heard from since the night but he ask if he could speak to me in person I hadn’t a clue what he was wanting to speak about,i went to see to see what it was about and he was like i have been doing a lot of thinking for a while and that I really like you and would like to see where this could go if we could make it work,i was I shock,I didn’t know what to say and he had his child with him that day too was the first time i meet her.i said to him i would try and see if it will work.
