Retaliation Amiss- Chapter 2


Chapter 2
“Hey Nora, I got us some breakfast.”
Nora felt the blood drain from her face.
“Sam. Last night, did we, I mean I am only remember bits and pieces. But did we.”
She couldn’t finish the awful thought in her head. She looked at Sam. He hung his head a bit.
“Yeah, we made love.”
Nora felt a fresh wave of tears come down his face, oh God no. She felt her stomach churn. She ran to the bathroom and empty her stomach. She cried on the toilet. She felt her already broken heart shatter even more. She heard Sam walk into the room, she realized she was still naked. He covered her with a towel.
“Thank you.”
She put her head on her arms she took a deep breath.
“Sam, I.”
He interrupted her.
“Nora, I know. It’s okay, we both drank to much and you were upset about finding Bo with Georgie. I know you regret it, even though I never will. I love you.”
Nora shook her head.
“Sam I care for you, but I will never love you, not like you want me too. I am hurt and broken by what Bo did, but I still love him so much, and I am heartbroken I cheated on him.”
“Nora, he cheated on you too.”
She nodded fighting the urge to sob.
“But it doesn’t make what we did last night right. I need to leave and find Bo. I need to tell him what I did, then I think it is time for me to leave Llanview. I can’t be with Bo if he doesn’t love me, no matter how much I love him.”
“Nora, please. Maybe you should keep this to yourself. What does it matter to Bo? He cheated on you, you were heartbroken. What happen last night just happened. Or do you just want to hurt him like he hurt you.”
Nora didn’t respond, truthfully Sam was right. She did want to see his face when she told him, to get a bit of revenge. But in the end she wanted to leave this town with nothing left to say. She finally spoke.
“Sam, I do want to hurt him like he did me, but I also need to clear the air. He needs to know.”
She stood on shaky legs, wrapping the towel tight around her. “Sam can you leave me alone so I can get ready.”
“Sure, I’ll be waiting out in the bedroom.”
She slowly shook her head.
“No, leave. I’ll get a cab home.”
Sam nodded and left Nora turned on the shower and stepped in hoping she feel somewhat better afterwards.
