Am I that Unlovable? by Summer Cheng

Chapter 20

 Luka's  POV:

   I had a flashback.

  It was about two years ago.

  

" Luka's  Flashback..."  

    I am here!

   "Correction, Luka, we are here."

    I nodded my head.

   I knew Chole was right.

  I  came here for business.

Why did I take her with me?

   I asked myself this the entire time.

   I booked two rooms.

  Mine was adjoined to hers.

  It had a  nice view.

  I planned to sleep alone.

  I was a married man.

  I knew Marinette was waiting on me.

   

   Around 9 am, I heard a knock.

  I ignored it.

 I was in the pool.

 I should have known better.

 I left the door that adjoined the rooms unlocked.

 It was a bad idea.

 I   heard a splash.

I looked up and blushed.

 Chole was in a lepoard print binki.

    I did not say a word.

   I heard her as she teased me.

  I splashed her.

  I felt a splash of water head my way as she splashed me back.

   I  gasped as she wrapped her arms around me.

  The wetness of her suit did not make things any better.

   I  watched her lean in.

 Before I could ask what she was doing, she kissed me.

  This time it was not on the cheek like all the other times.

    I kissed her back.

   I  knew it was wrong, but I still did it.

"End of Flashback..."

   

  Luka's  POV:

    I never officially asked out Chole.

   I was not sure if I could.

  I planned to return to Paris in a few weeks.

  

 Luka's  POV:

    I  knew my marriage was over.

     I mailed a package to Marinette.

   It was the last thing she would ever get from me.

   I sent her canned coconut milk.

   I made sure to include some tea as well.

   It was the least I could do after all I put her through.

  

 Luka's POV:

 Not sure why, but I tucked a blanket around the items.

   I  marked it with her address.

  No address from here was listed.

   I bought a few souvenirs.

   I was not sure what to do with them.

   My life was messed up. 

  Correction,  I was messed up.
