one week later....

It was a hard week, even stressful, Zack used me in every possible way, every meeting every contract I was there; he used as my diplomat as my ability to read people's face. l even stayed  late at nights to discuss every possible details, he was workaholic, and I suffered.

And finally it's week end.

Harry was angry at me, after I got the job I spent less time at home, I didn't have time to talk to him, and I missed a lot our little talk on the couch and a good movie.

So I decided to surprise him and bake his favorite cookies.

It was noon when I finished, I looked at the clock and smiled, I still have time to take a quick shower, I thought.

I couldn't finish my thought as the door bell rang. I was surprised, Harry should arrive at 6 and I don't expect anyone and I don't have any friends here so who it can be?

" can you explain why you don't answer your phone?"

"Zack what are you doing here? and I turned my phone off because some people calls at nights and asks where their papers and contracts are"

" God, I called you once, maybe twice" I looked at him and rise my eyebrow " ok I called you four times but it was important, and can I enter I have somethings to discuss". He didn't wait me to invite him, he entered and walked straight to the kitchen.

"hey, what do you think you're doing? and how did you know where's the kitchen? put it down I didn't cook them for you"

" for your first question I'm eating your cookies by the way they're amazing as for your second question, easy I followed the smell, back to work, every year we have a mascarad ball at Christmas it's kind of tradition now, I want you to arrange me a flight to Spain and bring some excuse why I won't be there" I was furious he gave me a headache in a second it was a record.

" You, disturbed my week end to bring some excuse to you?? who I'm? a lying machine? you gave me a headache all this week; don't you have a life? only work? this is my week end and I want some rest''

" what's wrong with you, why you are so upset?"

" you used me all this week and now you want me to lie too, can I ask why?"

" it's personal"

" you know that your staff wait this event and they need their boss"

" I hate Christmas and I want to escape, every year my father make me to attend the party but this year I have you so please I really can't go it's to painful especially this year; it could be our tenth anniversary" I meet his eyes and saw pain, and agony it surprised me what brings all those feelings, but I decided to ignore it, it's not my place to ask, thought seen him so vulnerable made me happy and sad. " ok I will see what I can do"

"thank you" he kissed my forehead and left. I froze what was that? I didn't have time to understand what happened, I heard the front door closed and I meet Harry's blue eyes, but they were different, ice cold and very strange.

" what's wrong?"

" what the hell was he doing here? now you also bring him home??!"

"no it's not what you think I turned my phone off so he came to ask something and…"

"and what Claire? stayed half hour? you forgot what he did to you, to me? Lisa's dead you're Claire now don't forget that I accepted your need for revenge; but don't push it".

A single tear run down my cheek, and all the pain come back again.
