Chapter 094

AMELIA

The guilt came in stages. First I was so pissed at what Damian did that I did not want to pay attention to the voice in my head which kept telling me that I had made a wrong move.

Then I told myself that I had perhaps been too harsh, but that Damian had deserved it.

But by the next day, I was convinced that Damian had not deserved the comment I made about his father. That had been hitting way below the belt, and I never felt more ashamed of myself as I did when I woke up. I didn’t know how to apologize to him, what to say, especially since it was a very sensitive topic to him.

I felt a mixture of relief and disappointment when Molly told me that Damian had left for work really early. Relief because I did not know to face him. Disappointment because I really wanted to talk to him. And then there was a crippling fear that he had gone to see Monique, still desperate to piss me off.

I wouldn’t ever forgive myself if he did something stupid because of my comment. Ugh.
