"Unfaithful" Part 6
"Lindsay what in the hell are you doing?" Chris yelled furiously as I tried
to disentangle myself from Bobby.
"Chris." I started to say. He looked at me, his face red with anger.
"I had a feeling you were lying to me, you've been acting weird around me
for a long time now!" I moved to get out of bed and grabbed the closest
thing to cover myself that I could. Bobby's shirt. Chris saw this and grew
even more upset. Bobby moved away from me to slip his boxers on and he sat
on the bed looking between me and Chris. I got up and walked toward Chris.
Bobby stayed quiet feeling this should be between me and Chris. I was near
tears as Chris yelled at me, it tore Bobby up to see the woman he loved in
such pain, but he knew what we were doing was wrong.
"Just tell me why Lindsay? WHY! What, what the hell have I done to you? I
tried making you the happiest woman, I gave you everything! You do this?"
He was screaming.
"I'm sorry Chris."
"You're not sorry! You're sorry you got caught, that's all you're sorry
about." He walked over and grabbed my arm and started dragging me out the
door. Bobby jumped out of bed and followed us.
"I'm sorry I hurt you but I didn't mean to. I am not leaving Chris." Chris
stopped walking and stood there in the middle of Bobby's living room, his
arm still had a firm grasp of my arm. He looked at me with cold eyes and
out of nowhere he slapped me. I cried out in pain and I fell on the ground,
that's how hard he hit me. I was so surprised, I knew he'd be upset but I
never thought he'd slap me, he'd never hurt me before. Next I turned around
and Bobby had Chris by the shirt and was dragging him out the door.
"Don't you ever hurt her again! If you do I'll come and slap you around."
And Bobby threw him out slamming the door in his face, I just stood crying.
Bobby walked over, helped me from the floor and gathered me into his arms.
I held onto him and cried, he led me over to the couch and I sat on his
lap.
"Shh....sweetie. Are you all right baby? Let me see your face." He looked
at it and got me some ice. I sat in his lap again. "You want me to come
with you to your place and get some of your things?"
"No, stay here."
"Linds, I'm coming, I don't want to take chances in case he's there again
and he might hit you."
"He won't. I can't believe he did it in the first place, he's never hurt me
before. Never, I'll go alone."
"You're not going alone."
"Bobby I'm going to be fine. I'll come right back."
"No. Linds, I'm going."
"Bobby--" I was cut off by a kiss from Bobby.
"I'm going." I sighed.
"Fine, but you are staying in the car."
"I'll settle for that." Lindsay got up and changed. Bobby changed after
Lindsay and they walked out and to his car. The ride was silent and Bobby
pulled into the driveway and saw Chris's car in the garage. "Linds--"
"I've got to go." I put a hand on his arm. Before he could talk I walked
out the door. I walked in and into the living room where I was sure he'd
be. It was pitch black so I turned and started into the family room. Before
I made it out of there though the light flicked on. I turned around and saw
Chris sitting there. I walked in a little, further into the room.
"Hey." He spoke softly. He got up and I got scared I started to back away.
He reached toward me and hugged me. I backed away and flinched. I saw the
look in his eyes, he wasn't going to hurt me again. I knew it this time.
"I'm sorry." He whispered.
"No, I am." I pulled away and kept my head down looking at the floor.
"Why didn't you ever make love to me like that?" I heard him speak. I
looked up.
"What?"
"Why didn't you ever make love to me like that?"
"Why didn't you ever make love to me like that?" I asked him back.
"Beca--" I cut him off.
"You treat me like a servant, like I'm your maid, like you own me !'m
supposed to do this and do that."
"Lindsay I--"
"NO! Damnit, this is MY TURN! It was always you, forget it, this is ME THIS
TIME!" I was screaming. "What was with the whole your job is better than
mine shit! I worked just as if not harder than you do. I can't be who I
want to be, who I really am around you! In...in bed you tell me I can't
wear the lingerie because it's too slutty! I feel like a woman Chris, I
feel loved when I wear it. You tell me I'm nothing but a slut."
"I'm sorry Lindsay."
"Well, it's too late." I told him.
"So that's it, you go screw another man yet we're married and you just up
and leave." I went upstairs got a bag and walked back down. "Listen
Lindsay."
"NO! I'm sick of having to listen to you all the time." I turned around and
walked to the front door.
"He's waiting for you isn't he?" I heard anger and pain. I turned around
and looked him in the eye and looked down again. "Don't leave."
"Why?"
"Because you're my wife and you do what I say."
"You don't tell me what I can or can't do anymore. I'm not your slave I
don't do things you tell me to do and you do not order me around." He came
over to me and I backed against the wall, I was scared again.
"Stay Lindsay, don't leave." He had me pinned against the wall.
"LET ME GO!" I screamed. We screamed back and forth for ten minutes. He
wanted me to stay.
"I want you to stay." Bobby had been in the front foyer and I didn't know
at the time.
"Well, to bad!" He continued to yell at me.
"Please just let me go." I was crying. Before Chris could speak again Bobby
walked into the living room. Chris turned to Bobby yelling.
'You, get out! You have no reason to be here, she's staying with me."
'She's coming with me!" Bobby was in Chris's face now and I was scared,
scared Chris would do something to Bobby. "She wasn't happy with you, you
didn't treat her right!" They argued forever and I just cried. Bobby looked
at me. "Sweetie, where do you want to go?"
"With me." Chris answered before I had a chance.
"Shut up and let her answer for herself." I was quiet for a long time. I
walked towards Bobby's open and waiting arms and buried my face into his
chest.
"I want to be with Bobby." Bobby wrapped his arms around Lindsay and kissed
her head. We both quietly walked out the front door and drove in silence to
Bobby's apartment.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A week later everything was perfect. Bobby and I couldn't be more in love.
I had stayed at Bobby's and we tried getting together everyday for lunch.
The office was getting very suspicious. They had met me, Bobby introduced
them to me a month ago. He seemed so happy and excited lately. Plus, every
lunch he was either gone, or I was at his office. We were sitting there
talking and eating at his couch.
"You think so?" I asked him, we were talking about one of my upcoming
cases.
"Of course I do, just raise the skirt and lower the neckline and then I'll
really be sure the judge will rule in your favor." I laughed and threw a
piece of my bread at him.
"You're bad." He looked at me like he was innocent and he leaned over to
kiss me. We were kissing when Bobby's office door opened. I heard Chris's
voice followed by Rebecca's.
"You can't just walk in here!" Rebecca was yelling at Chris and Bobby and I
sat there.
"To hell I can't she's my wife!" We both looked at Rebecca who just looked
between Bobby and I with a disappointed look on her face.
"I'm sorry sir." She spoke quietly and walked out the door closing it.
Rebecca walked out and Chris came and stood in front of me.
"Lets go." He reached out to touch my arm and I pushed away.
"I'm not going anywhere." Bobby still had his arms around me.
"Yes, you are. You're coming home and we're going to forget about this so
you can make my dinner, just like it used to be."
"No! I don't ever want to go back to what it used to be." I saw Chris get
more upset.
"Well, too bad. This little prick is just going to get tired of you and
then you'll come back to me." Bobby stood up and I stood too, I didn't want
Bobby beating Chris up and I knew he was going to.
"He's not going to get tired of me, he loves me and he knows how to treat
me. I feel normal, I feel like I can live without being held prisoner, I
feel that with Bobby. I never felt that with you! And even if he did get
tired of me Id never go back to you!" I was crying now and I felt Bobby's
arms around me. I caved right into his arms and felt him kiss the top of my
head.
"I'll never get tired of you, I love you." I heard him whisper. I also
heard Chris laugh and I looked up.
"What? Hard for you to believe someone loves me, that someone enjoys me?"
"Lindsay, let's just go home."
"I'm not going home ever again. I hate that house!"
"I bought you your dream house!"
"I never wanted that one." We were yelling back and forth. "I filed for
divorce." I blurted out.
"What?"
"I filed. I want a divorce, I don't love you. I love Bobby." It was quiet
for a while. Chris looked up at Bobby and punched him across the face.
Bobby wasn't expecting this and he fell. I bent down and saw the blood on
his nose. My eyes teared up and I reached for him. "I'm so sorry baby." He
shook his head 'no' and got up, he lunged for Chris and I tried holding
Bobby back but he was too strong. He hit Chris in the face a couple of
times.
"Maybe if you knew how to treat her she wouldn't come to me. You sorry son
of a bi--"
"Bobby!" I screamed his name and he turned to me. I had tears flowing and
his face softened, he dropped Chris and walked over to me, he took me in
his arms and I cried.
"Stay away from my wife." Chris yelled through gritted teeth.
"I'm not your wife." I sobbed.
"Yeah, well you stay away from her." He stood up and almost lost his
balance. "And you, you little slut. You'll be back, you don't know what
you're doing." He looked at us both and walked out the door slamming it. I
went into the bathroom and helped get Bobby a warm cloth. "Baby I'm so
sorry." He shook his head again.
"No need to be sorry." He took my hand and leaned in for a kiss. Our kiss
was interrupted by the opening of Bobby's office door, we broke apart and
sat on the couch. It was Bec. "Hey Bec." Bobby said quietly. She stood
there, arms crossed over her chest.
"Hey Bec!" She screamed repeating Bobby's words. "HEY BEC??" We both just
sat there holding each others hand. "What the hell went on in here?!"
"Oh, you noticed something was up?"
"Did I notice!" We looked down. "She's married Bobby! She's M-A-R-R-I-E-D!"
I had started to cry again and I felt Bobby's hand. Bec continued to scream
about good and high morals and how we didn't have any after what we did.
The whole office had crowded around Bobby's office. She went on for 45
minutes straight. "She's married you fool."
"I know Bec! You don't need to tell me twenty times!"
"Well, obviously I do because you've been sleeping with her for 2 months!"
She swatted him.
"It's my life Rebecca!"
"This office is a part of your life and we're in your life!"
"Well, stay out of it." He screamed and I knew he would regret these words
later on. After saying that, the office who had all gathered around his
door began walking into his office.
"Bec's right Bobby." Ellenor was the first to speak.
"Oh not all you too!" They just stood there. Everyone threw negative
comments out about me. I felt like such a slut, just like Chris told me I
was. I had buried my head deep in Bobby's chest crying. He held me and
tried defending me.
"You deserve more than a tramp who sleeps around." Eugene shared with Bobby
along with the others.
"She's a slut Bobby, get rid of her."
"She deserves the husband she's got." Comments were thrown all over me.
"I'm the one who doesn't deserve her, just back off, you don't know her!"
"I know she's a slut."
"She's NOT!" I detached myself from Bobby, crying I ran out of his office.
I was running to the elevator when I heard Bobby calling my name. I turned
around and looked at him, I walked in and watched the doors close. I drove
to Bobby's apartment and changed into a pair of his sweatpants. I grabbed
some ice cream and didn't bother dishing it out, I put on some sappy
Lifetime movie and sat on the couch. I called in and told work I wouldn't
be in the rest of the day since I didn't have any appointments until
tomorrow. A half hour after getting home I heard Bobby's key in the door,
he walked in with a bruised face, just seeing his face made me cry.
"Hey." I whispered. He sat next to me and gave me a hug. I smiled, I
thought he'd be upset.
"Hey you." He kissed my head. "How are you?"
"I'm okay. How about you?"
"I'm fine, you don't worry about me. I'll be okay." He squeezed my hand. We
sat quiet for a while. "Love you." I looked in his eyes and smiled.
"Love you too." He took me in his arms and I stayed wrapped around him
buried in his chest. We sat there until he pulled away and kissed me.
"We need to talk." I nodded, I knew he was right and I knew we needed to
talk to get through this.
"Yeah." I leaned back in the couch and he did too. He held my hand and
looked at me.
"I love you and I"m not going to get tired of you."
"I know that and I'm sorry." I looked down.
"Why are you sorry?" My tears started again.
"Because I never meant for any of this to happen. And you deserve someone
better, they were all right. I'm just a slut who doesn't deserve anything
but what Chris was to me." He hugged me tight and kissed my head.
"Shhh...stop Linds. You're not, don't listen to them. They don't know who
you really are, they don't see the precious, beautiful, loving and caring
woman that I see. And you don't deserve Chris, please don't ever think you
do. You're way too good for that sweetheart." I still cried.
"I just made things worse, I made the people you care most about upset with
you."
"The person I care most about is sitting here wrapped in my arms." I smiled
against him.
"Really?"
"Really, really." I laughed and he hugged me tighter.
"I still don't know." He pulled back and held my face in his hands.
"Well, just don't worry about it. It'll be fine, I'll make sure of it." I
smiled again, this man really was there for me. He leaned in and kissed me.
The kiss grew more and more intense and he gently pushed me back on the
couch. He unbuttoned my shirt and unzipped my skirt. After stripping me of
everything but my panties I started taking his clothes off. We were both
laying completely naked finally and he scooped me up in his arms and led me
away to the bedroom. He laid me gently on the bed and kissed me gently. His
kisses lingered down my neck and across my body. Finally his lips found
mine again and he looked into my eyes as he joined our bodies. I screamed
his name with each thrust until he finally brought us to our peak. I
captured his body in my arms afterwards and held him as we both tried
catching our breath. The sweet smell and sweat from our love making seeped
through the dark room and we laid wrapped in each other's arms finally
falling into an afternoon slumber. I woke up to an empty bed and threw on
one of Bobby's T-shirts before setting out to find him. I walked into the
kitchen and he wasn't there, I found a note on the table.
-Lindsay-
I had to run to the courthouse, I won't be long, make yourself
at home and I'll make us a nice dinner when I get home. Sorry
I had to go, I promise I'll make it up to you tonight! Love
you.
-Bobby-
I smiled at the sweet but then sighed and got sad thinking about Bobby not
being here with me. I got some food and sat in the living room watching TV.
I sat there thinking of Chris and I cried, Chris did love me and I hurt
him. Then I thought of Bobby and I thought about how happy he made me these
last few months. I'd never been that happy when I was with Chris. I debated
in my head whether or not I was doing the right thing, getting a divorce. I
went back to my relationship with Chris. Waking up in empty arms, cook
breakfast, eating in silence, leaving for work with a kiss on the cheek, a
quick phone call in the day if I'm lucky, come home cook dinner, eat in
silence again, he goes to work in his office, I'm alone and with a quick
kiss he rolls onto his side of the bed and goes to sleep. That was my
marriage. On weekends the only change was that he'd alternate between work
and television while I cleaned the house. Then I thought about the
relationship I have with Bobby. He holds me all the time, holds my hand,
let's a hand linger on my leg, tells me I'm beautiful, kisses me just
because, plays with my hair, talks and laughs with me, listens to me. We
cook each other meals, he calls me on the phone numerous times in the day
just to say "hey," he loves me. Bobby isn't afraid to show or tell me how
much he loves me, I never doubt Bobby's love for me, Chris though, I have
no idea whether he loves me all the time or not. I know it when he says it
but all the other times I don't know. I'm happy with Bobby, he wants a
family. I want a family, Chris and I never broached the topic. I finished
eating and went to put the bowl on the table. My rings clinked against the
glass and I looked down at my shimmering diamonds. I slowly pulled off the
engagement ring and then my wedding band. I laid them on the table, stood
up and took the bowl into the kitchen smiling. I walked into the kitchen
and washed the bowl, all the while looking down at my free hand, it meant
more than no diamonds on my finger, it meant I had a free life, I could be
myself, I wasn't tied down. I went into the bedroom and laid down again, I
should be upset and sad and part of me is in pain and sadness but now the
biggest part of me was happy. I knew deep down I was doing the right thing
and I had truly found the right man. The phone rang and I smiled. I looked
at the clock, 3:15 PM, right on time. I walked to the phone smiling. He was
only calling to say "hey."

"Unfaithful" Part 6
"Lindsay what in the hell are you doing?" Chris yelled furiously as I tried

"No, stay here."
"Linds, I'm coming, I don't want to take chances in case he's there again
and he might hit you."
"He won't. I can't believe he did it in the first place, he's never hurt me
before. Never, I'll go alone."
"You're not going alone."
"Bobby I'm going to be fine. I'll come right back."
"No. Linds, I'm going."
"Bobby--" I was cut off by a kiss from Bobby.
"I'm going." I sighed.
"Fine, but you are staying in the car."
"I'll settle for that." Lindsay got up and changed. Bobby changed after

"I want you to stay." Bobby had been in the front foyer and I didn't know
at the time.
"Well, to bad!" He continued to yell at me.
"Please just let me go." I was crying. Before Chris could speak again Bobby
walked into the living room. Chris turned to Bobby yelling.
'You, get out! You have no reason to be here, she's staying with me."
'She's coming with me!" Bobby was in Chris's face now and I was scared,

sat there.
"To hell I can't she's my wife!" We both looked at Rebecca who just looked
between Bobby and I with a disappointed look on her face.
"I'm sorry sir." She spoke quietly and walked out the door closing it.
Rebecca walked out and Chris came and stood in front of me.

"I'm not going anywhere." Bobby still had his arms around me.

"What? Hard for you to believe someone loves me, that someone enjoys me?"
"Lindsay, let's just go home."
"I'm not going home ever again. I hate that house!"
"I bought you your dream house!"
"I never wanted that one." We were yelling back and forth. "I filed for
divorce." I blurted out.
"What?"
"I filed. I want a divorce, I don't love you. I love Bobby." It was quiet
for a while. Chris looked up at Bobby and punched him across the face.
Bobby wasn't expecting this and he fell. I bent down and saw the blood on
his nose. My eyes teared up and I reached for him. "I'm so sorry baby." He
shook his head 'no' and got up, he lunged for Chris and I tried holding
Bobby back but he was too strong. He hit Chris in the face a couple of
times.
"Maybe if you knew how to treat her she wouldn't come to me. You sorry son
of a bi--"
"Bobby!" I screamed his name and he turned to me. I had tears flowing and
his face softened, he dropped Chris and walked over to me, he took me in
his arms and I cried.
"Stay away from my wife." Chris yelled through gritted teeth.
"I'm not your wife." I sobbed.
"Yeah, well you stay away from her." He stood up and almost lost his
balance. "And you, you little slut. You'll be back, you don't know what
you're doing." He looked at us both and walked out the door slamming it. I
went into the bathroom and helped get Bobby a warm cloth. "Baby I'm so
sorry." He shook his head again.
"No need to be sorry." He took my hand and leaned in for a kiss. Our kiss
was interrupted by the opening of Bobby's office door, we broke apart and
sat on the couch. It was Bec. "Hey Bec." Bobby said quietly. She stood
there, arms crossed over her chest.
"Hey Bec!" She screamed repeating Bobby's words. "HEY BEC??" We both just
sat there holding each others hand. "What the hell went on in here?!"
"Oh, you noticed something was up?"
"Did I notice!" We looked down. "She's married Bobby! She's M-A-R-R-I-E-D!"
I had started to cry again and I felt Bobby's hand. Bec continued to scream
about good and high morals and how we didn't have any after what we did.
The whole office had crowded around Bobby's office. She went on for 45
minutes straight. "She's married you fool."
"I know Bec! You don't need to tell me twenty times!"
"Well, obviously I do because you've been sleeping with her for 2 months!"
She swatted him.
"It's my life Rebecca!"
"This office is a part of your life and we're in your life!"
"Well, stay out of it." He screamed and I knew he would regret these words
later on. After saying that, the office who had all gathered around his
door began walking into his office.
"Bec's right Bobby." Ellenor was the first to speak.
"Oh not all you too!" They just stood there. Everyone threw negative
comments out about me. I felt like such a slut, just like Chris told me I
was. I had buried my head deep in Bobby's chest crying. He held me and
tried defending me.
"You deserve more than a tramp who sleeps around." Eugene shared with Bobby
along with the others.
"She's a slut Bobby, get rid of her."
"She deserves the husband she's got." Comments were thrown all over me.
"I'm the one who doesn't deserve her, just back off, you don't know her!"
"I know she's a slut."
"She's NOT!" I detached myself from Bobby, crying I ran out of his office.
I was running to the elevator when I heard Bobby calling my name. I turned
around and looked at him, I walked in and watched the doors close. I drove
to Bobby's apartment and changed into a pair of his sweatpants. I grabbed
some ice cream and didn't bother dishing it out, I put on some sappy
Lifetime movie and sat on the couch. I called in and told work I wouldn't
be in the rest of the day since I didn't have any appointments until
tomorrow. A half hour after getting home I heard Bobby's key in the door,
he walked in with a bruised face, just seeing his face made me cry.
"Hey." I whispered. He sat next to me and gave me a hug. I smiled, I
thought he'd be upset.
"Hey you." He kissed my head. "How are you?"
"I'm okay. How about you?"
"I'm fine, you don't worry about me. I'll be okay." He squeezed my hand. We
sat quiet for a while. "Love you." I looked in his eyes and smiled.
"Love you too." He took me in his arms and I stayed wrapped around him
buried in his chest. We sat there until he pulled away and kissed me.
"We need to talk." I nodded, I knew he was right and I knew we needed to
talk to get through this.
"Yeah." I leaned back in the couch and he did too. He held my hand and
looked at me.
"I love you and I"m not going to get tired of you."
"I know that and I'm sorry." I looked down.
"Why are you sorry?" My tears started again.
"Because I never meant for any of this to happen. And you deserve someone
better, they were all right. I'm just a slut who doesn't deserve anything
but what Chris was to me." He hugged me tight and kissed my head.
"Shhh...stop Linds. You're not, don't listen to them. They don't know who
you really are, they don't see the precious, beautiful, loving and caring
woman that I see. And you don't deserve Chris, please don't ever think you
do. You're way too good for that sweetheart." I still cried.
"I just made things worse, I made the people you care most about upset with
you."
"The person I care most about is sitting here wrapped in my arms." I smiled
against him.
"Really?"
"Really, really." I laughed and he hugged me tighter.
"I still don't know." He pulled back and held my face in his hands.
"Well, just don't worry about it. It'll be fine, I'll make sure of it." I
smiled again, this man really was there for me. He leaned in and kissed me.
The kiss grew more and more intense and he gently pushed me back on the
couch. He unbuttoned my shirt and unzipped my skirt. After stripping me of
everything but my panties I started taking his clothes off. We were both
laying completely naked finally and he scooped me up in his arms and led me
away to the bedroom. He laid me gently on the bed and kissed me gently. His
kisses lingered down my neck and across my body. Finally his lips found
mine again and he looked into my eyes as he joined our bodies. I screamed
his name with each thrust until he finally brought us to our peak. I
captured his body in my arms afterwards and held him as we both tried
catching our breath. The sweet smell and sweat from our love making seeped
through the dark room and we laid wrapped in each other's arms finally
falling into an afternoon slumber. I woke up to an empty bed and threw on
one of Bobby's T-shirts before setting out to find him. I walked into the
kitchen and he wasn't there, I found a note on the table.
-Lindsay-
I had to run to the courthouse, I won't be long, make yourself
at home and I'll make us a nice dinner when I get home. Sorry
I had to go, I promise I'll make it up to you tonight! Love
you.
-Bobby-
I smiled at the sweet but then sighed and got sad thinking about Bobby not
being here with me. I got some food and sat in the living room watching TV.
I sat there thinking of Chris and I cried, Chris did love me and I hurt
him. Then I thought of Bobby and I thought about how happy he made me these
last few months. I'd never been that happy when I was with Chris. I debated
in my head whether or not I was doing the right thing, getting a divorce. I
went back to my relationship with Chris. Waking up in empty arms, cook
breakfast, eating in silence, leaving for work with a kiss on the cheek, a
quick phone call in the day if I'm lucky, come home cook dinner, eat in
silence again, he goes to work in his office, I'm alone and with a quick
kiss he rolls onto his side of the bed and goes to sleep. That was my
marriage. On weekends the only change was that he'd alternate between work
and television while I cleaned the house. Then I thought about the
relationship I have with Bobby. He holds me all the time, holds my hand,
let's a hand linger on my leg, tells me I'm beautiful, kisses me just
because, plays with my hair, talks and laughs with me, listens to me. We
cook each other meals, he calls me on the phone numerous times in the day
just to say "hey," he loves me. Bobby isn't afraid to show or tell me how
much he loves me, I never doubt Bobby's love for me, Chris though, I have
no idea whether he loves me all the time or not. I know it when he says it
but all the other times I don't know. I'm happy with Bobby, he wants a
family. I want a family, Chris and I never broached the topic. I finished
eating and went to put the bowl on the table. My rings clinked against the
glass and I looked down at my shimmering diamonds. I slowly pulled off the
engagement ring and then my wedding band. I laid them on the table, stood
up and took the bowl into the kitchen smiling. I walked into the kitchen
and washed the bowl, all the while looking down at my free hand, it meant
more than no diamonds on my finger, it meant I had a free life, I could be
myself, I wasn't tied down. I went into the bedroom and laid down again, I
should be upset and sad and part of me is in pain and sadness but now the
biggest part of me was happy. I knew deep down I was doing the right thing
and I had truly found the right man. The phone rang and I smiled. I looked
at the clock, 3:15 PM, right on time. I walked to the phone smiling. He was
only calling to say "hey."
