Chapter 55 - Sunday Morning

I stand in front of my glass window, looking out at the city in a twilight. Tom requests to meet me tonight, at a hotel, and I know where our relationship will go if I meet him.

I sigh. I feel the conflicting thoughts as if it is a physical weight on my shoulders. I have to make a choice: Meet Tom to take another step on our relationship. Or return to Liam.

I press my palm against the glass. I am afraid and yet, I know what the right choice is. Even if it’s Tom that I want to be with, I can’t do it. Unfortunately, my emotions sometimes go wild and I’ve kissed him!

I pace around the unit that Liam has given me. I’ve always wanted a comfortable, boring life. Not the life that Liam is offering, and definitely not the one where I don’t have a safety net in less than two years. I tap my feet against the carpeted floor, deciding what to tell Tom, and what to tell Liam and Lukas.

Frustrated, I take my things and drive off back to our home, where Lukas and Liam are waiting for me.
