My CEO 117

117 I'll Do It (Winona)

Phillip and I are sitting talking in the bedroom. I'm not sure I should ask too much about his night out. He wasn't that late home and of course, he'd stayed sober drinking zero percent beers.

But he is still sore and sorry from his wrestling match yesterday.

"I may as well have a hangover, I feel just as bad."

"No. I don't ever want to see you drunk again."

"I'm really sorry I did that to you, Winona. It will never happen again."

As close as I've gotten to Phillip again, I know I can never trust him like I used to. He attacked me and I don't know how far he would have gone if Jayden hadn't come back that night.

"I appreciate you being here for me now, But you must see that I can never just trust you again. But I want us to always be friends. But that's it."

I've taken a lot of time over this. I've really searched deep inside myself to see if I could ever love Phillip like that. If I could ever truly forgive and forget.

But I know that's not going to happen and part of me rebuilding myself now is not to accept anyone treating me badly as okay.

It's not okay and there are no excuses. Phillip made a choice to drink alcohol that night. He made a choice not to tell me he was an alcoholic. He had years to do that.

While he may have fallen in love with me, I didn't get to know the true man.
