As I looked at him, I felt a little melancholic. Then, I held his waist and snuggled in his embrace. In a soft voice, I implored, "Hendrix, stay with me for a while."

But in the days following my return to Jarold City, almost everyone kept reminding me that I had a painful past with Hendrix and that I should move past it.

He looked at me like he understood how I felt. Mirroring my silence and reticence, he held me firmly in his arms.
