Chapter 28 The Conversation
- It has been exactly two days and I haven't heard from Brandon, which, I have to admit, is a complete relief. Honestly, I had thought he would come to the office at any moment and ask me to "talk". I confess that I feared that every moment of the day, as if I were in a haunted house and wondered when the ghost, the noise, the diabolical clown would come out.
- When I woke up, I would think, "Will it be today? Will I meet him at the office entrance, or talking to Mike, or maybe... at the end of the day, insisting on that coffee together?" I didn't deceive myself, I had already come to the realization that it had all been a complete mistake, that it hadn't helped my insecurities at all, and that night shouldn't have happened. It happened not only because of the timing, it wasn't his fault, I allowed it... because I wanted it too.
- When I casually told Lizzie and Billy, they were speechless. They were babbling and then yelling at me, asking me questions. It was a mix of shock, impression, a little excitement, and some concern. They knew what he meant to me and what he had done to me. I had to confess many things, what had happened before and those strange feelings I had now, half hate... half attraction. Plus, the situation that he was my boss, which didn't make it any easier.
