ALEXANDER

11 MARCH 1964

PARIS

He’d lied. He’d lied through his teeth. He didn’t just happen to be in the neighborhood.

For three months, he had lived in complete limbo. It was a perpetual battle between his heart and his mind; between his feeling for Nicole, their relationship, his obligations, conscience and his impossible, intoxicating feelings for Dominique.

When he went to see her at the café, Alexander didn’t tell her how many sleepless nights he’d spent wondering what he should do. How he’d asked JJ about her, hoping he wouldn’t suspect anything. How those three months in New York he did everything humanly possible to get her out of his heart. He took Nicole out for dates, he spent so much time with her, thinking, hoping she could make him forget. He didn’t tell Dominique how ever since his return the previous week, he’d been following her from school and how he watched her through the café’s window until a customer saw him, and he had to leave.

That Wednesday when he walked in, he had no idea what would happen. He thought she might not come and that perhaps it was for the best. Or that she would come but push him away or tell him she wasn’t interested in talking to him. Or that she would come but he would immediately know she wasn’t as amazing as he’d imagined she was and their connection was only in his mind. After all, who falls in love like that?

But she smiled and talked to him. And again, those feelings came back. Their connection was real. She was real and more incredible than even that first night. But as their time together came to an end, his conscience also started nagging him. He knew what their situation was. He knew who she was dating. What could he offer her? Nothing. Besides, he was with Nicole. And he loved Nicole, didn’t he? What was he doing there then, with another woman?

Alexander prepared himself to say goodbye. But when their hour was over, he couldn’t. Seeing her again, spending time with her again even if it was for just one hour. Even if he had to wait a whole week. That’s what he wanted more than anything. No, he couldn’t say goodbye to Dominique.
