Yet everything in her mind tried to resist what her heart was telling her, “JR please, don’t go there…”“What’s the matter darling?” JR asked, as he let his hands slip down to rest on her shoulders. “Can’t you handle hearing the truth?”“JR, you know that I am married to Don now. So it’s really not appropriate for you and me to be having this conversation…”“Well that might be, but even though we’re divorced there’s still something between us. You can’t deny that, since I know you feel it too. Otherwise you wouldn’t be here right now…”She knew he was right. Yet she’d rather be miserable with Don than admit it. So gathering up all the strength she could find inside Sue Ellen finally broke free from his arms, “I’m sorry JR, but you’re wrong. I just came here to talk about John Ross,” Sue Ellen lied.“Okay so what about John Ross?”“Um…I…” Sue Ellen walked past him, creating some distance between them as she was heading for the door. She could feel his eyes upon her, watching every move she made. Yet she didn’t stop until she was standing safely at the door. First then she turned around to face him. “I just wanted to tell you that I think you should spend some more time with him. You know he’s been dying to go with you to the office.”“I know but he’s grounded.”“True but as his parents we can un-ground him any day we want to. So why don’t you bring him with you to the office today?”JR shifted uncomfortably before he sighed, “Well I can’t today. I’m working late.”“Well isn’t that typical. I thought you said you had changed,” Sue Ellen said with a mixture of hurt and sarcasm in her voice. “But deep down you’re still the same old JR always putting your business before family and…”“Oh come on sugar, don’t be so hard on me!” JR interrupted her. “You know my work is important to me and if I don’t work hard, there won’t be anything left of daddy’s legacy to hand over to John Ross when the time comes…”“I know but do you really have to work nights?”“Well some business requires me to work late, you know that?”“Oh yeah I know too well what kind of business you mean…” Sue Ellen said bitterly. “I’m sure you’re working really hard in the bedroom…”“I’m not,” JR denied it. “But even if I was, that would be none of your business, we’re divorced remember?”“I remember.”“Good, now if you’ll excuse me I need to get dressed for work. So unless you’d want to stay and help me…”“I don’t,” Sue Ellen hurried to deny it.“Well if that’s so what are you doing with my tie?”Sue Ellen blushed, as she’d totally forgotten that she hadn’t put that back. “Oh this?” Sue Ellen smiled sheepishly. “It’s not what it looks like, it was just laying there on your floor and I happened to pick it up…”  “Nice try Sue Ellen, but I don’t buy it,” JR told her. “Because I know you,” he smiled before adding, “Why is it so hard for you to admit that you’ve missed me?”“Maybe because I haven’t,” Sue Ellen countered, as she threw his tie on the bed.She could tell by the way JR looked at her that he didn’t believe her. “Oh come on, don’t…”She didn’t even let him finish the sentence as this so wasn’t a conversation she wanted to have and therefore she hurried to cut it short before he could attack another one of her weak spots, “Anyway if you’ll excuse me I’m really hungry and breakfast is getting cold. So I’ll see you later.” “Okay I’ll see you later,” JR echoed, as he watched Sue Ellen hurry out of his bedroom. Still watching her go he didn’t feel sad, because she had sought him out in his bedroom this morning and that had to mean something. I know she misses me, whether she’s ready to admit it or not. JR whistled happily to himself, as he picked up the tie from the bed and started to change clothes. Because he just knew that it was only a matter of time before she’d be back. That's all. I hope you've enjoyed reading this. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Take care,Love:Karin.</blockquote>
