When we got together again, I wondered if it was your first time. You toldyou were married, so I figured you and your husband had been together a lot. But that didn't stopfrom wanting you. My moral compass isn't exactly strong." He squeezed her hand, pausing for a moment. "I used to get mad because I thought you were sleeping around. I assumed your flings with other guys were by choice, which madefeel like I didn't matter to you." Raymond had never opened up like this before. He looked down, gripping her hand tightly.

Raymond kissed the back of her hand. "If you don't wantto find him, I won't. It's not that I don't dislike him; I just want to listen to you." Selena couldn't find the words. She used to think Raymond was awful, especially with his flirty comments during sex.

Sometimes she felt like she understood him, and other times he was a complete mystery.
"Let's go eat first." Raymond set the GPS to the restaurant and handed her a tissue to wipe her tears.
