Henry and Vicki talk
Chapter 5
It seemed like an eternity went by while Vicki waited for Henry to answer the door. She wondered if he was still in town or if he had left already to go back to Vancouver. Finally she heard movement behind the door and the door opened. There was Henry standing there wondering exactly why Vicki was at his door.
Henry said, "Why have you come here Vicki."
Vicki said, "Henry I need to talk to you, may I come in?" Knowing that he only came to town to help with a case and knowing that she hurt him before by not leaving with him, he was slightly hesitate, but he let her in.
Henry said, "Sure Vicki, come on in." Vicki walked in the door and sat on the couch, while Henry closed the door.
Vicki said, "Henry please come and sit down next to me." Henry was not sure if he wanted to get that close to her, but he sat down next to her.
Vicki said, "I know that I hurt you when I would not leave with you and go to Vancouver."
Henry said, "Yes, you did."
Vicki said, "I'm sorry about that Henry, it's just that I was scared about what I was feeling and I needed time." Henry just sat and listened to everything that she was saying.
Vicki said, "I realized that you are my heart and soul." Henry's eyes started to look lovingly at Vicki
Vicki said with tear filled eyes, "When you left, I felt like my heart was being torn out of my body."
Vicki said, "Now that you are here, I do not want to loose you again." Henry's resolve broke and he moved closer to Vicki.
Vicki said, "I do not care what city you want to live in, I want to be with you, I love you."
Vicki said, "If you still want me, I am ready to leave with you and move to Vancouver."
When Vicki had finished, she looked over at Henry and sat waiting for whatever he had to say in response to what she just told him.
