time I had decided to just be faithful in this loveless marriage. I decided to hold on to the memories of my Kari. How long would that have lasted? If Karen didn’t send Kari to me I know I would have eventually needed another dose of Kari, her closed-mouthed smile, her voice, her love, her pussy.
    There was a knock on my hotel room door. I got up to open it. She showed. Kari was here. She walked in and locked the door behind her. She was wearing sweats and a white concert t-shirt that said Frankie Beverly and Maze . I never heard of them. It didn’t matter. I was more focused on her ass not her shirt.
    “Hey beautiful.”
    “Hey.” Kari walked over to me and gave me a look, not an extra black look but her usual black look. I characterize it as a little sass with twisted lips and a squint in her eyes. She walked right by me and took a seat on the bed and faced me.
    “What’s up? Why are you here? Did you get kicked out your house?” She seemed genuinely concerned for my well-being. One more thing to add to the long list of reasons I love this woman.
    “No , I just was tired of the twenty questions so I got a room. This is me going for a drive.” I raised my arms out at my sides and dropped them back to my thighs.
    “I didn’t think I would hear from you so soon.” I dropped down on my knees and huddled in between her legs.
    I took her hand in mine. Touching her made me feel calm. “I think about you all the time. I was thinking about you and I wanted to see you.”
    “Mason, are you mad at me? I said a few inappropriate things to Tess.”
    Understatement of the century. “No, the things you said were harsh but I can’t be upset with you. I should have never put you in that situation. She said some things and you said some things and it’s over now. I’m just glad you didn’t take a swing at her.”
    “Yeah I’m glad too. I’m not that person.” Kari rolled her eyes. “What happened, when you got home?”
    “ I told her the truth. I told Tess that I love you. I told her we’ve been seeing each other for a year.”
    “You said that?” Kari ran her fingers through my hair. I almost barked like a dog. Now answer the question, Fido. Woof! Woof!
    “Yeah , it was long overdue. It’s the truth. I’m tired of lying. You practically gave me an ultimatum. You said Jack’s divorce was final and fate put Tess at that hotel so it’s out. She is home alone. I hope she doesn’t try to kill herself but I’m not God. I can’t be everywhere. I can’t see everything. I can’t be responsible for every move she makes. My kids are with my sister so I know they’re safe. Right now that’s all I’m worried about.”
    “I’m glad your kids are safe.”
    “I can’t wait for the day that we can spend all night together.”
    “I don’t know what to say to that?”
    “Say that you want me like I want you.”
    “You know I want you. I always have. Jack will always be second for me. But Mason I’m your second.”
    “How can you say that?”
    “Because it’s true. Tess is and has always been your first. I’m your chick on the side.”
    “If I made you feel that way I’m sorry. That was never my intention. You have been first in my heart for a long time. I love you. I want you. You are my first and there is no second.”
    “You say these things to me but nothing ever changes.”
    “Where were you earlier? Things have changed. My spot has been blown to smithereens.”
    “So what are you saying?”
    “I’m saying me and you will be together. I would die before I let you live a life without me. We will be together and that’s final.”
    “Mason do you have any idea how you hurt me before? You said so many things to me and then you were just done. You dumped me.”
    “Kari, I was trying to do the right thing.”
    “ Ripping my heart out was the right thing?”
    “Of course not. Right now, today and forever, you are the right thing.”
    “Am I?” She was doubtful. I could understand why.
    “ Tell
