with any other woman including my wife.”
    “Sasha, when you and I were last together you
emphatically said that our past partners were the
past and we would leave it there so I saw no need
to provide
you
with intimate details on every
woman I have had in my life.”
    “But when I first met you, I was seeing another
woman, it was never serious but it was an intimate
relationship and that’s all it was for me.”
    “Justin found out that I had been dating her
and knowing that she was pregnant with another’s
man’s baby he convinced her to lie and tell me that
the baby was mine.”
    “He went so far as to spy on you and me and
he offered Cecily $50,000 to say the baby was
mine.”
    Sasha
had let Tony have
his
say without
interrupting him but she couldn’t believe what she
was hearing.
“What the heck are you talking about?” Sasha
groaned.
     
“So you are telling me that you were going
with me and another woman?”
    “No Sasha, I stopped seeing her a month after
I met you because I did not want to ruin any
chance of getting with you.”
    “Tony, I have been around the block a few
times but I never saw this coming!”
“What Justin did was wrong, very wrong but
you got up on your high and mighty when the man
tapped me on the shoulders at the dance club and
all along you were seeing someone else.”
“No, that was way before we got serious about
one another.”
“News flash Tony, I was always serious about
you! I need time to think about this. It’s too
important to me.”
Tony reached out for Sasha and she pulled
away.
She was dying inside because her body
ached for him but she needed time to think.
She had been married to one fool and she sure
as heck didn’t want another disappointment. She
told Tony she wanted to chill their relationship for
a couple of weeks and then they both could see if
they were simply a match physically or did they
truly love one another.
Sasha had to be sure. Tony pulled Sasha closer
to him and she tried hard to resist him but she
couldn’t so they kissed passionately.
They both
wanted each other badly but Sasha told Tony to
leave.
Sasha immediately phoned Justin to tell him
that he was a cruel and pathetic man.
Justin
continues to swear his love for Sasha but she
wasn’t in the mood to hear his crap because she
was outraged by what he had done to Tony and to
her.
To make matters worse, he had the nerve to
tell Sasha that he did it for her because he wanted
to show her that no one is without baggage and
secrets.
“You’re crazy Justin.”
“But I love you Sasha.”
“No, Sasha said, you love you and I want
nothing more to do with you.”
“Don’t phone don’t write, don’t bother me,
Just leave me alone, Justin!”
“Okay, if that’s what you want but you mean
you don’t want to feel me inside you like you use
to love to do when we were married?”
“Remember
how
you
called
it
your
thunderbolt.”
“I call all of them thunderbolt so don’t go
acting like you’re some kind of stud or something,”
Sasha was angered by Justin failure to realize the
seriousness of what he had done to her and Tony.
“Sasha you really hurt my feelings with that
last comment.”
“Well, leave me alone, Justin.”
“Okay, if that’s the way you want it but I will
give you one more chance to change your mind
otherwise someone
else
will have me all to
themselves.”
“I doubt that but have a nice life, Justin.”
“Goodbye Justin!”
When Sasha
hung up
from
talking, and
hollering at Justin, she was very clear about what
she needed to do in her life and it didn’t include
Justin or Tony.
She knew now that she loved Tony but he was
too willing to buy his way out of the problem he
had with Cecily.
Cecily had shared that bit of information with
Justin after her confrontation with Tony.
In a lot of ways, Tony was no better than Justin
except that he was a better lover but even that was
not enough for Sasha.
It wasn’t so much that he knew how to use his
equipment
