I called after him, sitting up fully now; but he was already gone. I could only stare at the door in disbelief, wondering if I did something wrong. Even if I went after him, I knew that I wouldn’t even get an answer. Was being intimate with me really such a mistake that he couldn’t even look me in the eye afterwards? Even though he knew that
