Read Between the Tines
“I'd blown things in the past but never anything this important. Lisa slid closer and wrapped her arm around my back. Fortunately, even though she could have, she didn't say I told you so.
Actually, I wasn't so sure I was fortunate. If this wasn't such a major bozo move, one where Adam would never talk to me again, she would have opened with an I-told-you-so look. The fact that she didn't meant I really was in a sorry place. One I might never recover from.
She gave my shoulder a squeeze. "You ca...n't just let him run off like that. Go after him. Explain why you did this. He'll understand." "Do you really think so?" I asked.
She nodded. Her face was clear and bright, full of hope. Yes, I would go. I jumped to my feet and glanced at Perry on my way past. At the sight of his doubtful expression, I lost a bit of my hope. He knew Adam better than Lisa did and his expression told me he didn't think Adam would respond favorably.
So what? My relationship might be over, but I wouldn't give up without trying to repair the mess I'd made.MoreLess
