Confused by Lee, I tried to escape his magnetic embrace. He’s still holding me tight, moving my body with his to another slow song. I’m unable to wriggle away. He won’t loosen his grip. His body heat had made me nauseous and lightheaded. Beads of sweat were trickling from every pore. I gather all my strength to free myself!
An empty table is in sight. Navigating through the dance floor in slow motion. I look back for a second. Lee is frozen in time. He looks bewildered.
Approaching the table with a few chairs nearby calms my nerves until… a jarring knock behind my knees sends me forward.
Angela brushed against Lee’s back, grabbed his shoulders, and yelled into his ear, "Stop hurting her!”
Lee felt a sensation from his shoulders. He whips his head around to find nothing, no one. Spotting Libby at a table, he makes his way over to her. A server takes their drink order.
Libby is still reeling from an unknown attacker. Could Lee have deliberately hurt me? I cooled down and noticed his stoic demeanor. Why is he staring off to my far left? Who is he looking at? He seems confused and disoriented. My instincts tell me to run and ditch him. I decide to give him a chance, even though something is off with him. “Lee, are you ok? Do you need to leave now?” I asked with worry creeping into my voice.
“I’m not sure; I thought I saw or felt someone from my past. Her name was Angela. It’s impossible; she’s been gone for over a year. I’ve felt her presence before, and again tonight.” Lee is speaking slowly but clearly.
Angela’s presence is nearby. She had thought Lee would marry her. Her spirit had not yet crossed over; there was too much unfinished business here on earth. Raging jealousy and false accusations had turned Lee off. He had hurt her in more ways than one.
