Plan "A" Worked Better

Nickey: “Oh, Sheila, I’m so sorry, I never should have said anything.” Sheila: “Nickey, look at me. Please, look at me.”
Sheila: “I’m not running off, luv. I’m right here.”
Sheila leans in to kiss Nickey.
Sheila: “Maybe I should have tried that first.”

There are moments, in any discussion or relationship, when the clearest message is the simplest and most direct.

It’s always scary to show your feelings, scarier to feel that they aren’t returned. This portion of the Nickey/Sheila story arc is dedicated to all of us who have risked, whether successfully or otherwise. Here’s to the strength to keep trying.
