45-Heartbroken
"Well, all right Eric, if that's the way you feel…" Daphne's voice trailed away and she ran out of Café Nervosa, trying to hide her tears. She was heartbroken, having been dumped by the only man she ever loved… or thought she loved. She gasped in horror when she realized that she had run into Niles… quite literally. And now he was holding her in his arms. "Dr. Crane...I'm so sorry!"
"The fault is mine, Daphne, I-." He looked at her in concern. "Are you okay?"
And suddenly she began to cry softly, comforted by his strong arms and gentle touch.
