Sitting at my kitchen table, I re-read Kevin's message for probably the hundredth time. I was contemplating how, or whether, to respond. Whether I should offer to take him out to breakfast or ignore it all together. I didn't even know if he'd still be here by the time I woke up.

The deafening silence hung heavily around me. The only sound was the tick-tock of the grandfather clock in the dining room. Being alone was something I was slowly adapting to, but I still wasn't ready to let anyone new into my life. I lost most of my friends because I was too busy taking care of Gramps. I didn't have the time to have much of a social life and before long the phone calls and texts stopped coming.

On the other hand, I didn't want to be alone but it was the only way to keep myself from being hurt again. There was only so many blows a person can take before they give up, and I was at that fork. Kevin seemed like someone that I would possibly like to get to know better, which also scared the hell out of me.

My main focus right now needed to be selling the house I grew up in. The plan was to start over somewhere new. Somewhere that didn't have bad memories attached to it. Sometimes you've got to put your big girl boots on and prove you can still use the pointy end.

With that in mind, I messaged Kevin back.

You're right, no one likes being judged. I'm just not at a point in my life where I'm taking unnecessary risks. Maybe third time will be the charm.
