I stayed with my mom until Sunday, then headed back to Austin. I was trying to pluck up the courage to tell James how I felt about him, but I had no idea where to start, what to say, or if he was even still interested in me. I felt like shit for not responding better to his gifts, but above all, I wanted him to call and tell me he still wanted me. I desperately wanted to call him and tell him I couldn’t wait to see him, but that last part of me wouldn’t allow it. I still didn’t want to show weakness, and I wanted to be chased.

On Monday, I was at work when lunchtime rolled around. I was trying to decide where to eat when I got yet another delivery. It was small this time. I tipped the messenger and sent him on his way, then opened the package to see I’d just received my lunch: a hamburger, fries, and one of those little mini bottles of champagne. There was a card that read ‘A delicacy where I come from.’ I couldn’t help smiling when I thought about the room service he’d ordered on that amazing first night.

I called him again. I had told him to quit with the expensive gifts and come up with something real. This package couldn’t have cost more than ten dollars, but it stirred up all the right emotions. That first night together clearly meant as much to him as I was now realizing it had meant to me.

“So, what are you doing this weekend?” I asked him as soon as he’d said hello. He must have been able to hear the smile in my voice.

Sucking air in noisily through his lips, he replied, “Bad news. I have to be in Argentina on Thursday.”

“Argentina, huh?” I quipped. “I haven’t been there in years.”
