The Color Of Heaven - 09 - The Color Of Time - Plot & Excerpts
I resisted the urge to get up and call him and tell him that I’d changed my mind—that I didn’t need to sleep on anything. I wanted to be with him. But I had made a conscious and sensible decision to take this slow and not fall head over heels. I needed to remember that this was complicated. That was the word he had used, and it fit the situation perfectly. For that reason, I forced myself to go over in my mind all the reasons why I needed to proceed with caution. We barely knew each other. He lived out West. His wife might want him back. I might have some tragic medical condition. Mostly, I was afraid of getting hurt again. I was afraid of falling in love and losing him. If not now, later. I feared not being able to let go of that love. I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life pining away for yet another beautiful person. I’d done enough of that already. The following morning, I went to work and told Cassie all about my date with Chris the other night and how he had taken me to my doctor’s appointment, then dropped the bomb that his ex-wife wanted to come and spend a week with him and their son.
