AFTER THE BATHROOM incident, I took a long hot shower and followed up by throwing my damp hair in a bun, putting on a pair of flannel pajamas, and nursed the perfect cup of coffee from my Keurig while I looked through the latest episode of Society Magazine.

The usual suspects were there: Fiona Duffy, Taylor Parker, Chyna Bleu, members from some popular Beverly Hills wives reality show and others who were known to cause trouble or just managed to get their photos taken while coming from the gym looking like stir-fried shit.

Every time I thought about my conversation with Raymond, my stomach lurched and I didn’t think I would be able to tell Torin until the last minute. It would definitely have to wait until after we had mind blowing sex again because once with that man hadn’t been enough and I wanted all of him this time, not just his cock and his mouth.

I wanted those blue eyes to see me for who I was and what we meant to one another.

Which meant what, exactly?

Yeah, my inner Freud was having a field day with my new obsession over Torin. That’s all it was because we couldn’t possibly know one another well enough to have formed some kind of real emotional attachment. It was my pheromones and his frying each other’s brains, giving us a sense of euphoria and that feeling we were meant to be when, in fact, we were what each other should run from if we were smart.

I was a nobody; an attractive little nothing from a small town in Northern Nevada who couldn’t cope with a sister who’d I’d thrown in a mental institution so to assuage my guilt, I one-upped her and became our mother. That seemed a fitting punishment for the woman who was fine, mentally. I needed to suffer, craved it just to make me feel better about my sister who would be co-dependent on me for the rest of her life just like I was with her.

What about France?

Yes, I’d bought that apartment in hopes one day I would have a normal life but I knew in my heart of hearts that normal would never come because it wasn’t in the cards for me. I was a freak and no man would ever want me on his arm, let alone to be his wife.

I’d been living in the perfect fantasy world for so long, my own little pathetic version of Pretty Woman, I couldn’t tell truth from reality anymore and it was downright sad and depressing.

Between nursing the remnants of a passing hangover and my own self-doubt, it was amazing I made the effort to dress for lunch.

I chose a periwinkle blue Chanel shift dress with a black cashmere wrap and a sky-high pair of black Louboutins’ to finish off my casually elegant look. I left my hair down and it flowed in loose waves around my shoulders down past the shoulder blades.

Everything about me, including my car, was understated; it wouldn’t actually bode well to have my neighbors wondering what I did for a living.
