Eric leaned against the headboard as he looked at a sleeping Katerina. He smiled as he pushed away a stray strand of hair that had fallen on her beautiful face. Last night was a difficult one, he had heard her story by accident and he couldn't help but feel guilty, she had gone through something horrible while she was in America because of him, because he wasn't man enough to tell her how he truly felt.
"Mmmmm." Katerina said as she slowly woke up. "Eric, why are you up so early?" Katerina asked as Eric took her hand in his and kissed it.
"I have a job to do today." Eric told her.
"A new film? Commercial?" Katerina asked. She was too sleepy to think that it was so sudden, most would have to schedule things months and even years in advance with Eric, that's how in demand his talents were.
"No, Katerina this is something different." Eric said in a serious tone forcing Katerina to open her eyes and sit up.
"What is it?" She asked her boyfriend.
