MICHELSON POV

THE Grandfather's clock in the wall dinged as I walked into the house all tired, weary and out if thought of another term to tell the state I was in.

I stared at the clock that struck Eight a.m. it got me wondering how long I had stayed out for by her side cuddling her like a baby, Brianna and I had talked together for the first time without screaming at ourselves— In a way it clicked as Success in my book—and Ineas excited about the fact that we had taken out time to talk it all out, as a matter of fact she had fallen asleep right there against my chest before I sneaked out of the room.

I knew that I had to do something different from what I was doing, I had to move away from Paula as much as I could but that was where the difficulty set in.

    MICHELSON POV A FAN whirled overhead as I opened my eyes and looked around the room, here was I again in the same situation, same mess I was trying to get myself out of. I heaved heavily, not wanting to look around as I lay naked on the cold floor, this was more than imagination as I was wild awake , this was something real. My pulse skidded to an awkward stop as I laid confused not knowing what to think or how I was going to get over what just happened. Unease poured into my bloodstream; it was indescribable yet I expressed it in every way possible, cutting through my soul like ice. I was so deep Into her , so far gone I couldn't let go no matter how hard I tried, just earlier I had come to her to end things and bring all this to a stop but yet she had left me in the same state I had come to her with, she had left my heart cold as ice. The air was still. The Indecision that I just made shook in my hands and I could see it from the way it trembled. My heartbeats raced deep wit

    MICHELSON POV I WAS done with my little fling… Little seemed like an inappropriate word I could use to describe what me and Paula shared and the fact that we've been together for half a decade regardless it was how my heart chose to classify it at that moment. Here I was trying to change a new leaf, become a better lover – Yet It left me wondering if I was being casted for that role by Brianna. She wouldn’t see it that way, I could guess to myself, and I couldn't blame anyone or her because the truth was had been a total asshole to her. The readiness she had shown to want to change the situation was no longer there, the affection had once felt was not there again, and bar the moment we had at the hospital that gave me a kind of hope, I was starting to think the whole marriage situation no longer suited her. The fun was over for me now and I couldn't go back to it for a while once I opened the door right in front of me and stepped in, no more need to fulfill a few sexual fant

    BRIANNA'S POV THE FACT remained that I couldn't trust him, though with the way he sounded I had the feeling he was speaking the truth. I knocked at the door waiting for her to reply, I was in the mood to speak to just one person and that was her, as there was no one I could speak to at that moment. I didn't want to talk to my mother as I knew what she would say, I swallowed the lump in my throat. I didn’t know how I would tell her about everything, I knew that this throb in my heart would be worse than any physical pain if I trust him again but at the same time he had sounded genuine. She watched as I walked in, turning to look at me dropping her knitting set. "Brianna, how are you doing …how are you feeling now, hope you are feeling better now?" She asked. "I am, I just feel the need to talk to you." "What Is wrong with you?" She looked worried as she sat up. "Nothing much, I just want to get an advise from you." "Sure you can tell me anything what is making you worried?"

The fact that Paula had been calling me over the last couple of hours and I had been rejecting her calls was in a way making me rethink the entire situation. Out of the options in mind, I narrowed down the various ways I intended winning her over with.
