Her faces freezes and the one thing that I hoped wouldn't happen, is happening. She looks away, avoiding my eyes as she says, "Of course." She pauses and then softly says, "No one would have to know."
She's right. No one would have to know except for us but I can't ignore that her beau lives here, in this very house. A man does not disrespect another in his own house. I look at Karina, as beautiful now as she ever was and I pull her into my arms as I raise her chin to my face until she looks at me.
Confessing gently, "I have someone, too. We've just started and I don't know where it's going," I have no flipping clue, "but I want to see." Oh Nanshe, she's so very beautiful and her perfume is making me dizzy. I let go of her chin, pressing my forehead against hers gently before continuing, "The council might think it's as a conflict of interest, complicating the election. Don't you see how much trouble it could cause?" I plead.
I lean back, missing the closeness immediately as I whisper, "Please don't be hurt. You're one of my dearest friends and I'd hate it if you were hurt from this."
