Feedback: That would be nice. I didn't think a lot of people would e-mail me and when I saw 'Review 40', it gave me a tingly sensation all over my body. :) Yay!!
Chapter 3
Did she even know we were in the restaurant with her? She would have this conversation even if Harm and I were not here.
"So after the divorce, I got half. I took it and ran. I don't think marriage is for me. I think it's the fact that you have to come home to the same routine everynight..."
I would love to come home to the same routine everynight. I could easily picture coming home with Harm every evening, eating dinner together, watching tv in bed with his hand in mine. This kind of life could easily satisfy me.
"Do you know what I mean, Mac?"
She asks me as if we shared some common bond. We don't...not really. The only thing we share is our love for Harm. She's not getting him--not over my dead body. I'm starting to feel better.
"Um...sure. I think I understand where you're coming from. I don't think I would mind that type of life though."
"Really? I thought that was what I wanted too, but now I'm not so sure. You wouldn't mind coming home to the same person everynight?"
"No, not if it was the right person." I smiled slightly.
Harm seamed to be enjoying this because he gave my hand a squeeze.
"Oh. Well, I should've known."
"Excuse me?"
What did she just say?
"Oh Mac, I didn't mean it like that. It's just that you're picky when it comes to guys."
"Rene..." Harm started
"Rene, you really don't know me that well. Could you not analyze me?"
"Sorry Mac..."
"Excuse me, Harm." I slide out.
For some reason, I don't think he will follow me. I am by the entrance, but I can't help but turn around one last time. I see him telling her something, pointing his finger, revealing his anger. He's standing up for me. Then he walks away and looks at me. When he arrives at my spot, he gives me a sympathetic yet loving smile.
"You okay, Mac?" he asks when we walk towards the car.
He stops in front of me and brushes a stray hair from my face.
"Yah...I'm not having a good day. I should have composed myself better."
"The woman insulted you, Mac."
"I know. God, what's the matter with me?"
"Nothing. There is nothing wrong with you, Mac."
He places his lips on my forehead.
"Harm, after work do you want to come to my place?"
"Sure, I'll make you dinner."
I smile. We're getting closer to our future. We're going home and eating dinner. But I can't help but feel this nagging insecurity that he still doesn't feel the same way. I think he sees this in my eyes because immediately he wrapps his arms around me and kisses me. There is no feeling like this. He's sending tingly rimples throughout my body, giving me goosebumps along my arms and legs. I am so in-love. Oh yes, I am so in-love.
