"Can I come in?" I asked. "Do whatever you want." Maureen said.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Okay everything."
"What happened?"
"Well I got home this
morning after… you know. And Jo asked me where I'd been all night
and I said nowhere and she knew I was lying and she said that until I
started telling the truth, she was going to stay with her folks."
Tears were soaking her face.
"Oh, Mo, come here." I leaned in
for a hug but she pushed me away. "Don't touch me. This is all
your fault. If not for you I would still have Joanne." I had never
seen her like this. "Hey, there were two people there last night!"
I yelled at her and immediately regretted it.
"I want you to leave!" She yelled at me. "No, no. I came here to talk about it so let's talk about it."
"Talk about what? As far as I know and you know nothing happened last night." But it did. And I will never forget that night. "Okay. Nothing happened."
"So did you talk to Maureen?" Roger asked me.
"Yeah."
"What'd she
say?"
"She said that to our knowledge, nothing happened and
she just wanted to forget about that night."
"Well, maybe that's
what's best for both of you."
"How could it be best for both
of us if it did happen?"
"Maybe…maybe this way, you could move on." Roger said. "But what if I don't want to?"
I know this was a short chapter. Please review!!!!!! I need reviews!!!!!!!
