    when davey reached out to touch my wrist, i pulled my arm away. i pulled my sleeve tighter around my wrist and looked at him.

    'it's not your business davey.'

    You were my lover, but are my friend. I care about your well being, and this indicates that you aren't doing as well as you could be doing.

    again davey's familiarity got the better of him. as he reached towards me, i stood up and pushed him away. he stumbled but held his ground.

    ' i don't need your help.'

    i got past him and went to the sink to wash my face. when i looked into the mirror i saw davey just standing behind me watching. he looked kinda sad.
    hear my name

    ' you think just because we fucked last night you can tell me what to do with my life. you left me davey remember. i don't need you in my head right now. i don't need you telling me how i'm messing up my life.'

    i walked out of the bathroom. more than a few people were looking at me. i guess they heard what i said. but i didn't care. i moved as far away from the bathroom as i could. which put me in front of my feet painting. i tried to hide behind two woman who were looking at it, chardonnays in hand. they told me they liked it and i thanked them. i looked over to see gerard walking towards me. i pre empted him before he could chastise me.

    'don't say it gerard..... i'm sorry. i just can't be around him anymore.'

    and so i followed gerard. on the way i passed by that arlo guy. he was talking with davey. so he knew davey. i rolled my eyes at that thought.
    when we got to gerad's office i waited for him to begin.

    Here he said as he gave me some water and a touwel, fix yourself up a bit before you go down stairs. The reason I asked you to come up here is because I want to call the police, and I want to do it with you present. They might want to ask you some questions.
    We were able to throw that scumbag out of here, but it wasn't easy. He did a lot of damage.
    I'd ask you to tell me who that was, but I reckon you will do so if you want. Anyway I want him arrested or whatever. I feel you might be in danger. I don't trust raving looney's like him.
    Now fix yourself up while I dail revange, he smiled at his own joke.

    ' i'd rather you didn't call the police. vincent is my brother in law. if you call them it'll only give him another excuse to come after me. next time i may not be in room full of people. i just want to forget it okay?'

    gerard didn't look happy that i was so willing to give vincent a get out of jail free card. but i knew he'd defer to me on this.

    'do this for me please gerard. besides i doubt it'd good for business if you had the cops traipsing through your gallery.'

    Jesus Anna, do you really think that argument is gonna change my mind. I may care for my business, but it is nothing compared with your life. How shallow do you hold me fore?
    You say next time you won't be in a room full of people, and that is exactly the reason why you should call the police. This guy’s a maniac, he is dangerous. Anna please listen to reason on this one.

    'fine. do what ever you want gerard. but if i see one policeman walk through the door, then i am out of here and i'll find someone else to broker my art.'

    with that i walked out of the office. i knew he wouldn't call the cops cause he knew how stubborn i could be. and besides i was right on this. what did he think the police could do? vincent would be back on the streets in no time. that's even if they dragged him in at all. the police hated getting involved in domestics and involving them would only aggravate vioncent more and i know if he showed up at my front door that there'd be nothing i could do if he really wanted to get in. i didn't know where freya was. but i was glad that neither did her homicidal husband.

    Freya sat in her car in front of Anna's house for two hours now, she was seriously considering to just go in and wait for her there. However given the circumstances she thought it best not to push her luck.

    twiddling with the knob, freya travelled up and down the radio frequencies looking for something that she wanted to listen to.
    she used to love music but lately it was a fulltime job trying to stay on vincent's good side. not that he had one. but he was getting increasingly possessive and violent and she didn't know how to handle it.
    she knew if he found her he would beat her. she couldn't go to the police, cause unless they were prepared to lock him up he'd come after her. she was starting to understand anna's journey's inside herself. frustration could get you to do things you wouldn't normally even think about. freya started the car with thoughts of the beach in her head. she'd phone anna later.

    Just when she was ready to drive away. Anna knocked on the passenger window.

    freya wound down the window. she noted that her sister was not alone, though she didn't know the man.

    'oh hey anna. i was gonna call you later'

    freya was taken aback by anna's outburst. though she understood after their last meeting that it wasn't wholly unexpected.

    ' i came to apologise to you. but i can see that i need not have bothered.'

    freya started the car.

    That was my sister. I would tell you how, why and what, but it is a long and tiring story. So I'll spare you the details.

    'i'm sure you'll tell when you're ready to.'

    as soon as we got through the door, i excused myself to go to the bathroom.
    when i came out, arlo was standing in front of one of my paintings. he glanced sideways when he sensed me.

    ' you know oscar wilde said a portrait says more about the artist than it does about the subject.'

    when i told him it was a self portrait, he turned to me.

    'yes, that's why it makes me wonder about you anna.'

    having this man who i didn't know at all, looking for something in my eyes made me uncomfortable. i waited for him to make the first move.

    The chemistry seemed to be in the air, and I longed for him to kiss me. He walked up to me and as I thought it was going to happen he asked me why I painted so many nudes.
