BUNUS

Peter had been in his office for a long time, struggling with what was on his mind and what he was truly feeling. He realized that by not answering the questions Celeste had asked him, he was confirming whatever she might be thinking, and quickly he stood up from his chair and went to the room he shared with the woman.

Celeste had fallen asleep, and when he entered, he saw her small body lying on the bed. He felt a sharp pang of remorse and couldn’t hold back anymore. He moved closer to her, lay down beside her, and embraced her.

“I’m sorry! I’m really sorry I couldn’t answer the questions you asked me earlier.”

“Celeste, I just want you to know that in these months I’ve been with you, you’ve made me happy. No matter how difficult things got, you made me happy. You make me feel alive again.

“I know what you heard, but I’m still not ready to talk about it. She’s part of my past, and my memories are all jumbled right now. She isn’t doing well, and I just complicated her life. I know you won’t believe me, but you matter to me, and I need you.”

Celeste heard all of this. He no longer smelled like the perfume of that woman, but it was evident something had happened between them, even though he told her to trust him. The truth was, she no longer knew what to believe. She didn’t know who she was really talking to anymore. His gaze seemed lost, and his embrace didn’t have the same warmth it once did.

“Peter, I really want to believe you, but honestly, I think this isn’t working.
