Setting my handbag and keys on the table, I begin to pour myself a glass of wine. Suddenly, there is a knock at the door.

Glancing at the clock, it cannot be Eric. There is no way he is home at this time.

I open the door, and my chin drops. "Jenna! What are you doing here?"

"You won't return any of my calls or messages so guess what, here I am."

"Wow, okay. What is it you want to chat about that is so important?"

"Can I come in? This is not a hallway conversation."

I let Jenna into my apartment, and we both take a seat on the couch.

"I want to apologize for everything, Aria. For being such a bitch, for shoving you and especially for causing so many problems for you and my brother. I feel terrible."

"Problems? Jenna, you managed to split us up. Eric and I were happy until you started with your games. Games that high schoolers play. It devastated both of us."

"I know. I want you to know that I hope you and my brother get back together. Don't get me wrong, I don't love the idea of you two together, but I will accept it." Jenna drops her head.

"Accept it? As in you will stay out of our business and let us be or keep on with your witch-hunt tactics, and control mechanisms?"

"No games, no BS, I will stay out of it, period." Jenna nods.

"Truth be told, Eric and I spent last night together. It was the first time in weeks. And I will add we both genuinely enjoyed one another."

"I don't want any details, ha-ha. I know you two are intimate. I don't care to hear when, how, or what happens, thanks." Jenna laughs.

"Oh, so you don't want to know about the activities on this couch we are sitting on?" I chuckle.

Jenna jumps up from my couch. "Seriously? Where are we sitting?"

"Yep!" I smile.

"Okay, how about the dining room table, is that safe?"

"Um, I would not recommend that either." I snicker.

"Kitchen countertop?" Jenna quizzes.

"I think maybe that one spot on the floor over there is probably safe." I point to the spot on the carpet.

"Good grief, do you two not have lives? Is that all you do?" Jenna laughs.

"When it’s good, it is really good."

"No more details! I cannot bear to be eating Christmas dinner with you two and these thoughts haunting my mind."

"Oh, so the videos we made last night are not something you want to see, either?"

"Are you fucking kidding me; videos of you two having sex?" Jenna scoffs.

"I am kidding you!" I roar in laughter.

"Whew! I was going to say, you two are freaks."

"I love your brother, Jenna. Please know I will not ever do anything to hurt him. Having your approval makes me feel so much better." I walk over to hug her.

Jenna and I hug for a moment, and then she takes a step back. "You are not pregnant, are you?"
