After Elise determined that the power of the soul-mate bond would force me to be with Leo, we moved on to the subject of her kids and Nina's upcoming wedding. I was grateful for the pressure to be off me, but once my friends left, guilt filled my thoughts. I barely ate my dinner, and it wasn't because the breadcrumbs were wrong.

I snap out a blouse before laying it on my ironing board. I'm embarrassed I let Leo believe his job as a male dancer came between us. I know how awful it is to be judged that way, because people made a lot of assumptions about me based on my mother. Starch floats out in a fine mist when I spray it over the white cotton, and the iron thuds when I place it on the shirt to press out the wrinkles. I think about how Elise and Nina are so sure I won't be able to resist Leo for long. But as Nina said, when I set my mind to something, I don't stop until I get it. If I want to stay away from my soul mate, I can. And that's exactly what I plan to do.

I try to distract myself with thoughts of the lessons I'm teaching this week. The ironing board creaks as I painstakingly get every crease out of my blouse as if one tiny wrinkle will ruin my resolve to stay away from Leo. But it doesn't work, because my guilt over making him believe I don't approve of his job won't stop nagging at me. And I know at the very least I've got to apologize to Leo if I'm ever going to be able to let it go.

So when I hang up my last shirt, I make my way to the kitchen and grab my car keys. I'm going to the club to find Leo and tell him I'm sorry. And then maybe I can put this whole thing to rest and move on with my life. The way I have it planned.

When I get to the club, I'm surprised to see the parking lot so full on a Sunday night. Music thumps loudly as I approach the building. A group of women ahead of me are dressed up for a night out and giggling like teenage girls. It makes me smile as I recall how much fun my friends had the other night. While I have no doubt many women have fantasies about the hot bodies up on the stage, most of them see it as a night out to be silly and enjoy watching good-looking men. I don't recall anything other than lecherous smiles at the place where my mother worked. The patrons of this club are definitely a strong contrast to those men. It hits me just how much different the two forms of entertainment really are, and my guilt becomes heavier on my shoulders.

As I stand in line to pay the cover charge, I notice one girl
