“It’s a great stress reliever. Plus, it helps you to connect with your spiritual being. It clears your mind and opens the gate to better clarity. What happens when your mind is clear and your body is free of stress?”

“What?” I smiled.

“You’re able to allow new ideas and better decision-making to flow through.”

“Maybe I will.”

“Aw, that would be great. Wouldn’t it, Chloe?”

“I don’t know. I can’t see you doing yoga.” She looked at me.

“It never hurts to try new things. It was nice seeing you both, but I have to get back to the office.”

When I stepped into my office, Damien was sitting behind my desk.

“Hey. Have you ever taken a yoga class?”

“A couple of times. Why?”

“I was just wondering. Someone told me that a lot of corporate men take it.”

“Are you thinking about taking one?” he asked.

“I don’t know.”

“Does this have anything to do with Chloe?”

“No.”

“Liar!” He laughed as he got up from my chair. “Do what you must to prove to her that you still love and want her back. If that means taking a yoga class, then do it.”

It was Sunday morning, and while I showered, I tried to think about what to wear to yoga class. I couldn’t believe I was actually going, but I was doing it for Chloe. Okay, I was doing it for me too. Being able to see her, even if it was only for an hour, was better than not seeing her at all, no matter what the circumstances were. I had no clue what to wear as I stared inside all my opened drawers. Grabbing my phone from the nightstand, I decided to suck it up and send a quick text message to Chloe. I highly doubted she would respond, but it was worth a try.

“Good morning. I’m sorry to bother you, but I have a quick question. What does one wear to a yoga class?”

“LOL. You’re actually coming?”

“Yes. I could use some mental clarity at the moment.”

“Wear your black athletic pants in the second drawer to the left and the matching black t-shirt hanging in your closet towards the back by your casual pants.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Her “LOL” made me smile. The fact that she could laugh about me coming to her mother’s yoga class told me that maybe, just maybe, the hate she had for me was starting to disappear. I couldn’t wait to see her. When I wasn’t up all night thinking about her, I was dreaming about her.

Chloe

What was he up to? He would be the last person on this earth that I ever expected to see at a yoga class. Just as I was about to walk out the door, my phone rang, and it was Sienna. When I answered it, I narrowed my eyes at her.

“Why are you still in bed? We have yoga in ten minutes.”

“I can’t make it today. I’m sorry.” She pouted. “Sam and I did our own yoga last night, and now I can’t seem to get out of bed.”

“Me either,” Sam mumbled.

I sighed. “I packed the picnic basket.” I held it up.
