a posting dilemma.

“I know! Time flies, I can’t believe we just passed our anniversary too!”

Harry stares at the response to Mike’s post. Samantha…
The words flow instinctively, and with predatory glee:
“Wow Sam, you’ve made it a year without cheating? Well, technically, I guess you could have just made it a year.”

He re-reads his words. You don’t deserve to know how you hurt me…
Slowly. Deliberately. He deletes them. He types again, more carefully:
“Congrats Mike. Teri is a keeper!”

He pauses. I can’t just ignore her…
Once more:
“Happy Anniversary Mike. Hi Sam, glad to hear you’re doing well too.”

Too passive aggressive.
He absently bites his fingernail. He is happy to see her post. Even now – he misses her. Before he can stop himself, he clicks on her avatar.
“hey sam… look, i know we ended badly, but i was just wondering if you wanted to get a cup of coffee or something. -h”

Risky.
He leans back into his chair.

bing a chat window opens with: “yes.”

Honesty – he loved that about her.
