DESTINY
Lunch at the in-laws was not something I looked forward to. But Marat asked me to go with him, and he’d been so sweet the past week, I couldn’t refuse.
He’d come home early from the office every day. Well, early for him, but what I imagined was a normal time for most people, six o’clock or around then. We ate dinner together every night. Watched TV. Listened to music. And we always made love.
Shit. I had to stop thinking about the sex we shared as making love. It confused things, and I was already too emotionally involved as it was.
Marat was an unexpected foodie, and he took me to the best hole in the wall eateries Manhattan offered. He loved it all. And so did I.
“I can’t believe of all the places we’ve been so far hot dogs are your favorite,” he said, tsking and grinning at me as we drove to his brother’s house.
