Chapter 5: The punch, the rescue
"Well this has been great and I am truly happy that you've got you're life
on track and everything's running smoothly for you and that you're happy. You seem it". "Well", stammered Marissa "I am truly happy". "Cam we still keep in touch". Asked a curious Ryan. "Umm sure that would be great. Keep in touch this time. I mean we live in the same city. Can't be that hard", replied Marissa. "Well I'll call you soon yeah", "Yeah that would be great, bye" "Bye".
With that Marissa slowly walked out of the shop. What am I doing? She questioned herself. I'm letting him out of my life again. At least that's what it seems like. I mean who does call with all that history. She couldn't do it I can't do it, I have to let go She quickly walked out of the shop and didn't look back.
Why did she run off like that? If only I new what she was thinking. I think I know what she's thinking. I don't think she happy. She wouldn't have rushed off like that, thought Ryan. He too slowly walked out of the shop..

Marissa quickly walked up the stairs and unlocked the door to her apartment and was surprised to see John pacing up and down the living room with a red face to match the newly decorated living room.
"John, what's the matter sweetie", "Oh don't you sweetie me, I saw you with the window with him, what the hell were you doing",
"John I was just having lunch with a friend. "Oh don't give me that" John cut in. "John will you just let me explain" but suddenly a hand came and punched her in the face.

Ryan was walking back down the street not knowing that this was where Marisa lived. He kept on wondering what was up with her. He knew her better than that. At least he thought he did. Suddenly he saw someone that looked strangely like Marissa coming running out of her apartment with a guy storming out, flying his arms in the air.
"You can't do this; you can't see other men behind my back." "I wasn't, I was seeing an old friend".
"Hey what's going on" asked Ryan
