else.
    “I just feel that I have everything under control right now. I do understand, and this will be a new beginning for me. Thank you Dr. Logan.”
    “It’s Annmarie. Here’s my home and cell phone number.” She wrote on her clipboard and motioned for my cell phone. “Maybe we can double date?” she laughed as she placed her name and numbers into my contacts.
    “Sounds good, Annmarie . I’ll send you an invitation to my wedding. ” I got up realizing deep down inside I was making a big mistake, but it was too late to take it back. No matter how much I thought I had it together. “Well, I guess this is it.” I hugged her, and she patted me on the back.
    “See you soon, Jenesis and Good Luck.” She walked me to the door and I passed the reception area. I waved to the receptionist and walked out of the door.
        I let out a sigh of relief and continued to walk out of the building. I inhaled the fresh air and the feeling of being in love with life again emanated through my body. It felt like a new beginning where I can close the door to the past and open a new chapter in my life.
         I was about to hail a cab, then all of the sudden that feeling of relief turned into a sour punch in the gut. Tilly was standing outside waiting for me.
    “Jenesis,” she said, her beautiful blue eyes glowing in the sunlight.
    “Hi, are you okay?” I asked.
    “Yeah, I just wanted to spend some quality time with you.” she smiled. That lie was written all over her face.
    “Well, that’s nice, thank you.” I smiled back nervously. I didn’t know what this was all about so I simply asked.
    “What’s going on? Tell me the truth.” I said sternly.
    “Okay…I need to see Dave, and he refuses to see me.” she said softly.
    “What about Eddie?” I demanded.
    “What about him? This isn’t about Eddie, it’s about Dave.” she said annoyed.
    “Look, stay away from Dave. He’s off limits. You’re with Eddie. Don’t hurt Dave any more than you already have.” I barked.
    “I love Dave. I always have.” she said sincerely.
    “Oh, now you tell me. Why are you playing these games? You told me Dave was after you, and then fucked you and walked away. What’s your story?” I said annoyed.
    “Okay…I lied. I didn’t want to tell you.” She glanced away.
    “Why?” I stepped a little closer to her.
    “I…really didn’t know you.” she said as tears flooded her eyes.
    “Okay, now you sound like me.” I rolled my eyes at her.
    “Jenesis, please, you don’t know the whole story.” she pleaded.
    “You’re wrong. I do know the whole story.” I said confidently.
    “What?” her facial expression changed in a flash.
    “Look, if you want to talk to Dave, find him yourself. I’m not getting involved in this bullshit. I’m getting married, and I have to worry whether or not my husband-to-be is going to make it to the altar in one piece.” I said crossing my arms against my chest.
    “Jenesis, please, I’m sorry. I know what you’re going through.” She brushed my arm gently with her hand.
    “No, you don’t. The only man I’ve ever loved in this entire world has a price on his head just for doing his job. I’m sick to death not being able to be by his side twenty four hours a day because he has to work, so don’t tell me you understand, because you don’t!” I roared. She was pissing me off. This was not the conversation I intended to have with her. I wanted nothing more to do with this situation.
    “I do because that’s the way I love Dave. I love him Jenesis, I loved him since the day I met him and I need your help to get him away from Margaret.” she tried to say convincingly.
    “Have you lost your mind? Margaret is like my mother. I would never hurt Margaret, she loves him.” I said angrily.
    “No…she doesn’t.” she said adamantly.
    “What?” I whispered looking at the pedestrians passing us by
    “She doesn’t… trust me. Please, help me.” she begged.
    “I can’t and I
