Every time I closed my eyes, there he was: Mr Valois stepping out of the water, droplets sliding down his chest, that sinful blue boxer clinging to him like it had absolutely no respect for my sanity. God. What is wrong with me? I groaned and buried my face in the pillow before dragging myself up. My whole body still felt the sting of last night’s embarrassment. His voice replayed in my ears. That stupid deep voice.

"I know that it is your company, and you don't owe me... us an explanation, but you are pregnant. You shouldn't be under a lot of stress; you should have let us know immediately so that..."

bodega with the cat that is three parts lion, the nail salon two doors down that is always playing a true crime podcast at a low murmur, a teenager on a skateboard practicing a trick like persistence is oxygen.
