Trinity

At home, I drop my bag on the floor by the front door and let Bikini out of her carrier. She bolts for the patio doors and meows loudly to be let out. I open the doors wide and welcome the humid air against my face.

I’m glad to be home, even if the circumstances are less than ideal. I knew in my heart it was dangerous to get involved with a man like Lennon. It went against every professional and personal rule I’d ever made for myself, and now my heart aches. I deserve it, I knew better.

I grab a bottle of water from the refrigerator as there’s not much else in it. I cleared it out before leaving for Lennon’s when I thought I would be gone for a week or two.

On my patio, I don’t light my candles. Instead, I sit in the dark and watch the party going on next door. If I didn’t feel so shitty, I would go over and put in an appearance for Bodhi’s sake. It was nice of him to invite me.

What am I supposed to do now? Lennon is clearly unavailable, even if he doesn’t remember Kelly or the engagement. That ultrasound picture was her key to the kingdom. No way would he walk away from a child, especially if it’s his.

But, what if it’s not his? I mean, everyone says she’s been sleeping around for a long time. It’s possible. You don’t need this, Trinity. Baby or no baby, he has too much baggage and some of it he might not even remember. No, it’s best to walk away with a bruised heart instead of an annihilated one.

Bikini hops onto my chair and nudges my hand asking for attention. I comply scratching behind her ears as she kneads my shirt with her paws like she’s making dough.

My phone lights up on the table in front of me. I look, it’s a text from Fiona.

Fiona: Hey, I know you’re upset, but I wouldn’t believe anything that whore says. I’m staying with Lennon tonight since you had to go home, but I can’t be here tomorrow, gotta work. You think you could help, just until we find a replacement?

No way will I be drawn back into that mess, not when I’ve been successful at making a clean break.

Me: I’m sorry Fiona, I can’t. I’m sure a temp agency can send someone out right away in the morning.

Fiona: It’s late, no temp agency is open at this hour. You could just come and be here, you wouldn’t even have to see him. The house has security cameras, you could sit in the war room and watch him. If he has a problem, you can go and help him, otherwise nothing. I won’t even tell him you’re here. I’ll say I trust him to take care of himself for once.

Me: He may have lost his memories, but he’s not stupid. He’s going to suspect something is up.

Fiona: Then I’ll tell him I’m downstairs studying, and he should call if he needs help.
