A few days later, I showed up back at Brock's dental office. I was nervous about what I might encounter when I got there. When I walked in the door, Reba was walking out of one of the exam rooms with a patient. I stood there out of the way.

"Thank you so much. Remember not to eat anything until the novacane wears off. We'll send the bill to you in a few days." Reba said with a smile. He nodded and walked towards me.

"Excuse me." I said and moved away from the door so he can get out. Reba walked over to the counter and put up the file in her hand. I walked over to her. "Hi Reba." She looked at me.

"Hello Barbara Jean, what are you here for? Trying to steal somebody else's husband?" Reba asked glaring at me. I took a deep breath in. I deserved that, I knew I did.

"I'm really sorry Reba. But I want to talk to you. I think we need to." I responded. Reba looked at me.

"I have nothing to say to you." Reba stated.

"But I do. Can we talk somewhere?" I asked. Reba sighed and nodded. She walked towards Brock's office. I followed her into the office. She sat down in Brock's chair and I leaned up against the wall.

"You wanted to talk, so start." Reba said hatefully. I sighed and started in.

"Reba, I know that I shouldn't have tried to seduce Brock. That was wrong." I started to say.

"You're darn right it was!" Reba hollered.

"Please let me finish." I said. Reba stood up.

"Look Barbara Jean, I'm not going to sit here and listen to this. I have work to do. You tried to get my husband to leave me to marry you and now you expect me to sit here and listen your sap story and some dumb apology?" Reba questioned. "Well I'm not about to accept it!" Reba walked over to the door. I walked over and grabbed her arm.

"You have to listen to me. I truly am sorry for what I did. I didn't mean to hurt your family. Please forgive me." I said. Apparently I looked pretty pathetic because Reba took one look at me and sighed. A smile spread across her face.

"Okay, I'm sorry for being rude Barbara Jean. You just deeply hurt me and my family." Reba stated.

"I know. I'm sorry I did that. I can't believe that thought even came over me. I wish I could take it all back." I replied. Reba put her hand on my arm.

"Nobody's perfect. I'm supposed to forgive you so that I can be forgiven. I don't want you around my husband anymore; but I won't be so upset with you anymore." Reba stated.

"Oh thank you!" I grabbed Reba and hugged her tightly. "I promise I won't spend any time around Brock anymore. Unless I'm around town and just can't help it." I said.

"I appreciate that Barbara Jean." Reba replied. The door opened and we both looked up to see Brock walk in.

"Oh I'm sorry. I didn't know you two were in here." Brock started to walk out.

"Brock, come back in here." Reba said. Brock stopped halfway through the doorway.

"Are you sure?" Brock asked and looked at Reba. She stood up and walked over to him.

"Barbara Jean said that she wouldn't try and go after you or anybody else's husband again." Reba said and I nodded.

"I learned my lesson Doctor Hart, I'm so sorry; I didn't mean to hurt either of you." I said and walked towards the door. Reba touched my arm.

"Please don't go just yet." Reba stated. I looked up at her. Reba hugged me. "I can't say that I'm happy with our situation, but I'm glad that you know what you did wrong and will try your absolute hardest to make it right." Brock stepped out of the way and I walked through the door and out of the office.
