Cori looked down to realize her fingers were tapping against her right thigh. A couple more deep breaths and she looked at him, summoning some sort of emotional courage she wasn’t truly sure she had. “And then I came back and put a wrench in your plans,” she said, trying to keep the bitterness out of her tone, but it was so very hard. She turned back to her boxes and continued rummaging through it.

“Hon, I was working on this long before you came back. This has been two years in the making. Lizzie has nothing to do with you and me, we… things change. The time you were gone I had to make a choice and my life began to twist. As much as I love you my life isn’t the same anymore, I’m not the same anymore.” Jarred said, he had told her this once before but this revelation had to be harder to believe with all that had happened.

She laughed and this time the bitterness definitely sounded. “And that’s supposed to make me feel better? You had a secret part of your life and you were changing and growing and you hid it from me?” Cori spun and glared at him, her electric blue eyes glowing slightly. “I get it. Three years is a long time for a person to be considered dead. Gone. Lost. You moved on. Except… you didn’t. I got myself free and we picked up right back where we left off. Why didn’t you just tell me then? And why are you even here now? What difference does it make? You get to clear your conscience and go live your lovely new life with your new little family, and I what, am supposed to jump and down with joy because they get the best of you and you hid yourself from me?”
