Darren and his father had gone back to their office, but neither had spoken on the ride. Darren had simply leaned back against the headrest, staring out the passenger window. His father had concentrated on driving, letting his son feel the anger that was obviously coursing through his veins.

When they got back, Darren went into his own office and closed the door. He sat there at his desk, going over the things he had heard. Walter and Mustapha had done an extremely effective job of editing the clips, and Darren was confused. Could it possibly be true that Katie Lou was playing him?

If she was, he told himself, he could only put the blame on the man in the mirror. He was fully aware that he had to have caused her an incredible amount of pain, and the only way he could believe the things he heard was to attribute them to her own desire for revenge. Maybe she wanted to hurt him, just the way he had hurt her. He didn't see how he could blame her for that, if it were the case.

On the other hand, it didn't quite accomplish what his father was after. Rather than being ready to tell Katie Lou goodbye, he found himself determined to try even harder to win her back. He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and tried to formulate a plan that might enable him to succeed.

First, he would not let her know that she had been spied on, or that he knew what was going on between her and her physical therapist. By keeping that to himself, he hoped to win her back by showing her just how much he had changed. He wanted her to see him in an entirely new light, as a man who would be completely devoted to her.

He didn't know that Katie Lou had an appointment with Rob that morning, so he picked up his phone and dialed her number. She didn't answer until the third ring, and he could tell from the background noise that she was in a car.

“Hello?”

“Hey, Katie Lou,” he said, keeping his voice calm and steady. “I hadn't talked to you since the other night, just wondered how you're doing.”

“I'm doing okay, how about you?” Her voice sounded pleasant, but he thought he detected slight hesitation.

“I'm good,” he said. “I just thought I'd give you a call, and see if we might get together again this evening. Maybe we can talk some more, try to put more of the unpleasantness behind us. I really do love you, you know.”

“I love you, too, Darren. I'll admit there was a little while there when I really didn't want to, but those aren't feelings you can just turn off. You know that, yourself. Tonight? I guess that would be okay. I was glad to see you in church yesterday, by the way.”

Darren smiled, enough so that she would hear it in his voice. “Yeah, well, maybe that's part of the new me.
