5 ~ THE MATRIMONIAL DISCUSSION

Lincoln had a restless night in the motel, finding his thoughts veering between two extremes of beliefs, and his confusion great.

On the one hand, he didn't want to let Lexi go. He didn't want to let go of his belief that she loved him, and the two of them were meant to be together. The two of them were soul mates.

But at the other extreme, he had finally found the insight to be able to stand back and view the whole situation with her - the entire three years they had known each other. He knew things could have been so different. At the start he had enjoyed the simple pleasure of being with her. He did not know when that had stopped being enough for him. When he had started to need so much more from her.

He knew he had to get himself together - he had to get his life back together. For more than three years he had been making the wrong things a priority, and even though he knew he was a great businessman, he also had to concede that there must have been a certain level of luck involved in his personal chaos not having flowed over to affect the company.

It was time, he knew. It was time to go home and forget all about Lexi. He had pushed her too far in his ongoing quest to keep finding more and more ways for her to satisfy him, and now she was gone. She had moved on and he couldn't deny the level of happiness he had seen on her face when she was with that man. The way they had kissed, the hunger he could see on their faces. And she looked healthy.

When she had left Melbourne, she had not been so healthy. He couldn't see it then. He could see it now.

No, enough was enough. He stayed in the motel that night and the following morning drove to the airport and was soon back in Melbourne.

Walking into his apartment, the first thing he did was have a long shower. He felt unclean, and he wanted to get himself back to being the person he had always been, before he had met her. Too much time had been invested in the wrong thing. It was time to put everything back in order. Always he had needed order, and since the day he had met her, his life had been in chaos. A chaos he just couldn't control, no matter how hard he tried.

The chaos had to stop. Order needed to be gained once more.

He took his time under the water, thinking about so many different things. But the first thing he needed to do when he got out of the shower and was presentable once more, was call Diana. She had taken the time to talk to him on the phone the night before. When he had needed someone to guide him in his moment of being uncertain what was the right thing to do - the right way to act - he had called her and she had been there.
