I park my scooter a few blocks from Zach’s house and head to his charming redbrick at the end of the street. Zach lives in Inry, a residential suburb of Paris that I’d never set foot in until Uma and I moved her things here.

She got her visa and arrived in France ten days ago.

The original plan had been that she’d stay in the Derzians’ empty apartment until late August, when my kind neighbors return from Brittany. By then, she’d find a job and a room in a shared rental or in a student residence at Cité Universitaire. But Zach was eager for her to start as soon as possible. She did, and according to Zach, she hit it off with Sam immediately.

I’m happy about that, not in the least because I was the artisan of this arrangement. And it’s fucking perfect any way you look at it. First of all, Uma will be able to return the grant money she believes others need more. Second, she’ll be safe with Zach, whom I’d trust with my life, so Maman and I don’t need to worry. Third, Zach got a huge weight off his shoulders. He can focus on the games again and start dating.

About that.

I called Sophie this morning to see if she was free on Saturday night for that dinner we’d discussed at the flea market. She said she was. I said “awesome” except awesome is the last thing I feel about it.

I keep thinking of our la java dance in that tacky bistro, two weeks back. We goofed around and I kept her at a safe distance from start to finish, but boy, was it hard. Just like the first time we met when I did a full salute within seconds of pinning her to the wall.

As we danced, the hand I’d placed on her hip as lightly as I could, itched to hold her harder. My fingers ached to caress her slim back. My palm burned to press into her hip so I could learn its exact curve and imprint its shape into my flesh before sliding lower to gloss her mind-blowing butt. As if that wasn’t enough, the urge to crush her against my chest and claim her full mouth almost drove me to the brink of insanity.

Had the singer done one extra chorus of “Padam… Padam…,” I might’ve lost control and done all of those things.

There’s no denying that Sophie Bander is the worst distraction I’ve ever had to cope with. She draws me away from what’s important. Worse, when I’m around her, my mind clouds over and I get this traitorous impression that nothing else matters. The season, Maman’s work, Uma’s future—all my goals and wishes pale next to my need to hold her.

What’s even worse is that I doubt a night with her would quench my thirst.

Something tells me the opposite would happen. Having sex with her would make me want more sex with her, and the whole thing would spin out of control.
