in disbelief.
    “What
am I’m supposed to say?” she asked.
    “I
don’t know, maybe pick your damn phone up and call him.” Corey peered over at
her. “What’s the deal, is he like the one who got away?”
    “Corey,”
Kari said, losing patience with her best friend. “Sam and I have been broken up
for two years now.”
    “I
know,” he huffed. “You still love him! Come on Kari, you haven’t dated anyone
since you broke up and moved out here.”
    Kari
slammed the pencil on the desk and looked at Corey, his faced went pale. “I’m
tired of talking about Sam, I don’t give a damn who the hell he’s marrying.”
Picking up her briefcase, she tossed all her work into it. “I’m going home for
the remainder of the day.”
    “Kari..,”
Corey tried to say.
    “Cut
it,” she said, holding her hand up in the air. “I don’t want to hear it, thanks
for the Swedish fish.”
    For
two years Kari made it her business to forget about the man she fell in love
with. The man she wanted to marry. The hopes of building a future with Sam went
tumbling down when she found her future husband was only with her for the
financial gains.
     
    Two Years
Ago- San Francisco California
    Walking
off the elevator, Kari stood in front of the apartment. Holding her hand up to
the door, she was about to knock but realized she finally had a key to Sam’s
apartment. Opening the door, she walked into the quiet bachelor pad placing her
purse on the grey sectional sofa she picked out herself.  Going into the
kitchen, Kari placed the bag of groceries down on the counter. She started to
take out the ingredients for the meal she was planning for them tonight.
    She
was about to rinse her hands in the sink when a pair of crystal drinking
glasses grabbed her attention, most importantly there was pink lipstick on one
of the glass. Curiosity was getting the best out of Kari. Not once did she
suspect that Sam was cheating on her.
    Cooking
a romantic meal was the last thing on her mind, instead of cooking Kari went
snooping. Yeah she knew if you go looking eventually you will find something
you don’t want to. Headed to the bedroom that she slept in countless times, she
paused by the door when she heard the muffled talking from a deep voice that
she knew and a female voice that was eerily familiar.  Kari crept to the door
and stared into small crack in the slightly open door.
    Sam
Russell was the man she put so much high stakes in, even when her parents told
her that he wasn’t good. Parents have the knack for recognizing a joker from a
king. It look like her family was right about Sam considering that he was in
bed with her best friend.
    “Mariah,
you have to go,” Sam said, as he slung his gangling body off the bed. His
chestnut brown hair was disheveled and hazel eyes still held lust from his
afternoon lovemaking with goldilocks.
    Kari
felt like a peeping tom, she scrunched her face up and concentrated on the two
people inside the room. Her fingers trembled in the air before she touch the
door in front of her. Damn her heart was beating fast.
    “I’m
tired of sneaking around like some whore,” Mariah pouted, sitting up and bed
she allowed the sheets to fall.
    Kari
got an eye full of fake double ‘D’ breasts. You’ve got to be kidding
me, she thought. If Sam was going to cheat on her, he should at least do it
with someone who wasn’t her best friend.
    “Mariah,”
Sam exclaimed, jamming his foot against the corner of the mahogany dresser as
he fumbled with his pants.  “Shit.”
    “Don’t
Mariah me!” Mariah yelled, standing up from the bed, she picked up her bra and
panties that was scatter on the floor.  “We agreed that Kari was temporarily.”
    “It’s
not easy,” he sighed, looking into the mirror as he buttoned up his red dress
shirt.
    “Wait
a minute.” Mariah went across the room and turned Sam around to look at her.
“You fell in love with her.”
    “Mariah,”
he groaned. “Sweetie, we already talked about
