Tabitha
He held my chin and kissed my lips.
âHmph!â I was shocked.
My eyes quickly scanned around us; some people were watching. My reputation⦠I raised my hand in an attempt to slap him, but⦠I felt so good. His kisses were my Achilleâs heels. So, instead of hitting him, I placed my hand on his cheek, kissing him deeply.
He pulled away. âTake good care of yourself.â
I wanted more kisses.
âI⦠will,â I said.
âYou can say you'll miss me,â he said.
I looked at him with surprise, then at my feet. I was going to miss him. I was changing too fast. He was going to take advantage of me; yet I knew I was going to miss him. I wanted to tell him to stay. I didn't want him to leave.
Instead, all I said was, âBruce⦠we're outside.â
He sighed, and it stung. He touched my hair gently and caressed it, then he kissed my temple. I was startled again, touching the spot he had just kissed.
I could feel my face heat up. He gave me a thumbs-up before leaving. I refused to take my eyes off him and my hand off the spot he had kissed, afraid it would lose its warmth. What was happening to you, Tabitha?
âIt's a shame he would be gone for a week,â I said to myself.
âHe's going back sooner than you expect,â a stranger said.
I turned to see a woman with her daughter. The child didn't look good, but I didn't want to pry.
I let go of my head. âI don't really care if he's gone for how long he likes.â
âI wouldn't say that if I were you,â she said with a sigh as she caressed her daughter's hair. âI'm Emilia. This is Mariam.â
âDr. Tabitha Hill,â I introduced myself.
âSeems like I would be seeing your brother, George,â she uttered and laughed.
I glanced over at her daughter and back at her. âShe'll be in good hands.â
âSo I've heard,â she said. âHave a great dayâ¦and try not to miss him too much.â
âI don't miss him.â Why was I defending myself to a stranger?
âSure you don't.â She grinned and left with her daughter.
âI don't miss him,â I insisted silently, despite how it ached my heart to say it.
âOh, that reminds me,â I said to myself. âHelen is in Maryland. I don't think my little sister would mind me visiting her.â
I decided to visit my sister because of family matters and not because I wanted to see a certain someone.
