Something just feels right and she looked familiar ; as in I was with her in another lifetime. I had the strangest dream last night it felt like I was back in an era , the Roman era I was a king and Cleo was my queen from far away . I'm not crazy ;just the other day my father asked me if I had romantic feelings for Cleo. I can't lie to him so I came out with the truth. He promised to stay neutral and not tell my step mother.

It started out as a cord a strong connection in fact that developed into a bond within a matter of days. Even though we have merged our energies together; I fear losing her . Maybe Cleo might run but I will always want to protect her. I saw how my step mother looked at her and not only did I feel embarrassed but I was disappointed. My real mother would have loved her . My father and son do and that's enough for me . I cannot believe I'm sitting on the same table as my ex wife , her sister and my ex girlfriend.

Being pardoned brings about a feeling of freedom , for the person giving the redemption and the person receiving. I had to learn to forgive myself first before I could accept that I had no control over what happened. I couldn't predict what was going to happen that night . Cleo knows one of my secrets.
