Emma couldn’t get the kiss out of her mind. It wasn’t just the kiss itself. It was the way Maxwell had looked at her afterwards, the depth of his eyes, and the unspoken promises lingering in the air between them. Ever since, Maxwell had filled every waking moment, and even in the very dreams. Her therapist, Dr. Grant, asked questions about her emotional state and even insisted on her talking about changes occurring in her personal affairs.

She was determined to see Maxwell once more, and not by coincidence. She decided at last to look into what time he had his next appointment scheduled. It wasn’t easy, Maxwell was a private man, and the clinic took confidentiality seriously. But Emma had her ways.The reception desk had a nurse who was fond of her. Emma capitalized on it.

"Wow, no wonder you couldn't wait to get me out of town. Now I know why. You're such a fucking piece of shit Maxwell, you know that. And to think I left Ohio and came down here to be with you while you're fighting a war," Katherine said as she stared at Maxwell. The vein in her forehead was apparently and it was glaring that she was furious. Before Maxwell could say a word. She tossed her hand bag at his head. Maxwell raised his hands in defense. He wanted to speak but deep down he knew there was no way he could defend himself especially in this sort of situation. What was his going to say? What was going to be his excuse?"And you? I knew deep down all you wanted was to get back in his bed. I knew I was right to be wary and on my guard whenever you were around, well you finally got what you wanted right?
