"I just thought..." I begin, flustered, not really sure where my words are headed.

He shakes his head.

"We can't," he states, removing my hand from his. "There are a million reasons why we can't."

He runs a hand through his hair, seemingly frustrated, and then looks back at me with those haunting, green eyes. 

I know he's right. I'm married, I have a family, and he's also my boss. 

***

Vanessa Harrison has acquired everything she's ever wanted in life: a creative lead position at an advertising agency, a perfect two-story house in the suburbs, and a Pinterest-worthy family life.

Until she meets Christopher, the new CEO.

Chris shows her that it's okay to dream bigger, and suddenly, the foundation that Vanessa has based her entire life on, begins to crumble. With her family life at risk, and fate balancing in the air, Vanessa must ultimately choose between the life that she's always wanted, and the life that she never knew she needed.

"Well we don't have that kind of money." I said as I furrowed my eyebrows as I looked at my fathers. "They need more time to pay it all off, it is true. I thought they will be able to pay it. So, I gave them five months. The third months can't be paid. They don't even one third of the annual payment. I believe you will a talk about my offer to them very soon." He said as he was walking towards me. "W-Wh-Why?" I asked as he approached me as I looked up at him. He was tall but, I was not very short either. He must be 6 feet but I was 5 feet and 7 inches.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory... You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once. 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏

It has to stop." "Go out with me tonight." He said taking a step closer to me, ignoring what I'd just said.

He gave a frustrated sigh when she stared up at him with an innocence only she would have. "I don't like this anymore than you do, but for the time being you're going to have to stay with me, just until the chaos dies down."
