An unconventional relationship?
That could mean almost anything, could it not?
Everetta gripped the stairwell to support herself.
"What… what do you mean by that?"
He gulped and stared at the ground.
"We crossed a few lines because we cared deeply for each other at the time-"
"What lines?" She cut him off to ask.
"We…" He trailed off. Then he placed his hand on the balustrade to support himself as well. "We… We made love once."
Eve just stared at him.
Made love?
"Then why didn't you marry her?" She threw at him, her grip on the balustrade tightening.
He ran a hand through his hair, unable to meet her gaze.
"I wanted to… but then Theodore…" He trailed off again.
Theodore what?
Just hearing his name made her strain her neck.
"Theodore did what?"
"Forget about that. I've told you the most important part - the part that concerns me."
"Theodore did what?" She asked again, her voice slightly raised.
