A little follow-up to The Double Affair


                             

Prompted by: Why do I love You, Sir? ~Emily Dickinson

.

She cannot keep Her place.

He knew he had to break it off, but didn’t want to be callous about it. Sandy was wild about him. She could be volatile, yet that drew him to her.

Napoleon was worried  he was getting too close by seeing her more than the other women in his life.

.
The Wisdom it be so—

They lay together in her bed, as her roommate, Taffy, was off now, somewhere with Illya.

He would have never put those two together, yet when the Russian saw what he liked, he went after it without any urging. That was the way he preferred it.

                                               

Sandy was another matter...

.

And reasons not contained—Of Talk—

She cried, threw her shoe at him as he dressed himself.

“Napoleon Solo I  hate you! How can you do this to me?”

“Sandy, it has to be. Can’t risk you being hurt. If someone found out about you, you’d become my weak spot...you’d be a target.”

“Me?”

“Yes you.”

.

I love Thee—

Sandy watched as he walked out her door for the last time, and sat staring at his framed photo still on her coffee table.

Inscribed, “With love, Napoleon.” She thought that meant something, but now, perhaps not.

“I love you Napoleon Solo,” she whispered, throwing the picture into the fireplace.

You forgot 'Snapshots".,...I'm writing almost a ficlet a day on that one, and have at least a back up of 30 stories. I love writing them and think they're my favorites.

Nope, didn't forget Snapshots; that falls under "the other stuff" I was talking about; things that have nothing to do with challenges or prompts, just stuff that we want to write, like my last Boston Legal tale.

True, didn't think that. Hey you getting heavy T-storms and rain by you. They keep rolling in and out of here, one minute thunder boomers and as downpour, the next minute the sun is blazing.

Couple of light showers, no thunderstorms at all yet. Some clouds passed by, no rain.

Wow it keeps getting dark and pouring, back to bright sunny skies all afternoon. At least the T-storms have stopped for now.
