AFTER MY LUNCH WITH Trisha, I had a lot to think about and no time to do it. Within twenty minutes I found a chat window from JP.
"U will get a delivery in the next 2 minutes. Take it to a stall in the ladies room and open it there," he'd sent.
His last delivery to me was still on my mind, so I won't deny how insanely curious I am right now. I know what I should be doing, turning him down and finding a way to end this, but I was not prepared. I had no words, no excuses, nothing to say that wouldn't hurt him, and I didn't want to do it that way.
I put my fingers on the keys, but nothing came out.
"Trust me," he sent.
The kid from the mail room suddenly appeared in front of my office, wrapping his knuckles lightly on the door frame. He handed me a FedEx envelope and sauntered out to finish his deliveries.
The curiosity was triple with it in my hand. It was small, more so than I expected, and that ate at me. I know what the right thing to do is; I'm just not sure how to get there.
"R u ok?" he asked.
Until just then, I had forgotten about the webcam. The light was on, and he was watching my face. The ice was broken already, whether I was ready to do it or not, and maybe that was the best way. There was no chickening out now, no reason to lie.
"Not exactly," I sent.
"Can I help?" he asked.
"I want 2 thank u for the gift, but I can't accept it," I typed. "I need to slow things down."
He paused.
"I've been around enough to know that slow down means call it off. Did I do something?" he asked.
I shook my head at the camera. "No, u did everything right. I would never have gone as far as we did except that u were so good, and it's killing me now 4 the same reason. U did it right, I did it wrong."
"I'm not following," he sent. "Are u really going 2 give me the "it's not u, it's me" speech?"
"I don't know how to say this without coming off like a dumb ass, so I'll just say it." I took a breath before typing. "I think I'm with some1 now, and doing what we do isn't right to either of u."
"U think ur with some1? I don't get it. Either u r or ur not."
"It's complicated," I sent.
"Isn't it always?" he replies, a definite hint of understandable sarcasm.
I tried to explain, "Something I thought was just going to b a passing thing, something from b4 u, seems 2 b growing into more. And if it does, it should b the only relationship I'm in."
There was nothing for a minute. Just me staring at the window.
Finally he replied again. "So it's not definite, this other thing?"
"Not yet," I answered truthfully. "Are u ok?"
"I'll b ok," he sent. "I get it, better now then when both things are serious.
