same shallow person he used to be in love with.
    Finally, he spoke to her, smirking. “Really? Is that what you wanted to say to me? You’re sorry?”
    “Yes, I mean, I saw you this morning. I was pretty shocked. I know that we don’t run in the same circles. Detroit was not a place I thought we would cross paths.”
    Nico half listened to her. He knew she had something else up her sleeve. He just didn’t feel up to entertaining it. He was ready to end this conversation. He knew the fellows were all watching them without even turning around. Tina had him sprung back in the day. She was what every man wanted: smart, sexy, and beautiful. By the time he saw who she really was, it was too late. He had already fallen in love with her. Her cheating and leaving him was something he didn’t expect. In the end, he knew he was better off. She was selfish and self-centered but, most of all, just money hungry.  Right now, he knew she couldn’t hold a candle to Shontell.
    “Tina, if it makes you happy, I forgave you a long time ago. It was nice seeing you, but I have to go.”
    “You’re going after your friend, I am sure. Thank you for taking time to hear my apology. I will see you later…I mean on the anniversary cruise.” Glaring at him, she strolled away before he could say anything. Nico stood there watching her walk away. He knew the extra sway in her hips was for him. She was one of a kind and at that moment he wasn’t impressed.
    Instantly his thoughts went back to Shontell. When he looked around and didn’t see her, he thought that she must have headed to the elevators. She was probably going up to her room. He headed back over to the table to get his things. The guys all watched him; they were waiting for him to say something. When he didn’t, Martin cleared his throat. He looked up and saw Martin and his brothers with expectant looks on their faces.
    “Son, are you okay?”
    “Oh, um…yes, I am okay. She claimed she saw us this morning and wanted to catch up and talk.”
    “And why would she think you would even want to talk to her?” David asked, getting mad. He didn’t like her then, and he liked her even less now. He didn’t want Nico to go backwards with her. He twisted his face, waiting for Nico to finish.
    “Beats me, man. Get this…she actually apologized for the way things ended with us.”
    “What?!” all three men chorused in unison. They were completely shocked by what he just told them. He almost laughed. That is all he could do anyways since he didn’t want to put much thought into it. He picked up his phone and told them he would be back in a few minutes. He started in the direction of the hallway and was stopped in mid-stride by his name being called by Dennis. He exhaled hard and tried to keep a straight face because he didn’t want to start this conversation with him again.  He waited for what he already knew was coming next.
    “Nico, do you really think that you should be going to her room? I mean your ex just walked in here after four years, and you act like it’s not bothering you. Maybe you should just let this thing with Shontell go,” he told him as he gripped his arm.
    Nico looked at where he had just touched him. He took a few steps in his original direction but then stopped in his tracks and looked at Dennis, realizing what he said to him a few seconds ago.
    “Excuse me? What do you mean let her go?  Why in the hell should I care about seeing Tina? We have been over for several years now. That’s not a road I would ever travel again. So I’m going to ask you again; why am I letting her go?”
    Dennis saw the look on his face. At that moment, he regretted saying anything. He had never seen him give him that look before. He cleared his throat and then began to explain. “I am just saying…I may be out of line…but don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence that she just happened to be in the same hotel where we are staying? Maybe it’s a sign you are moving
