~ 38 ~

It was Monday and I was back to classes.

My professors were very accommodating and even impressed when I handed in papers that still had another week before I had to turn them in.

I had spent the last week elbow deep in research and typing away papers on my laptop. My plan of keeping busy had somehow been successful, except that at night I couldn't help but feeling guilty and alone.

I had ignored all calls from my friends, and even Lissa. Though she had been the only one to leave me a message, reminding me of her support and that even though she was busy with her new job and new husband, she could still find time to kick my ass if I didn't pull it together by the end of the week.

I had decided in the morning to put on my big girl panties and see Dimitri that day. I knew he had physical therapy after lunch, so I was planning on stopping by afterwards and maybe take him to eat and talk.

I had hoped I could get closer to him, get him to know me all over again.

I didn't believe my heart could break any more than what already had.

I was wrong, so terribly wrong.
