Oh, God...I honestly don't know what I've done. At the time I suppose I was blinded by my body's foolish impulses, but now......now I feel so ashamed. I suppose I was just feeling lost and alone, so I sought solace in the only way that I currently knew how, and Willie, too. That seems to be the best explanation for all of this, but at the time I was feeling so many frightening and overwhelming emotions that I didn't know which of them to listen to.
In spite of all this, I can't help but wonder if I'd feel differently if Annie hadn't seen us...would I still feel ashamed? After all, it wasn't an unpleasant experience - quite the opposite, in fact, but my God, I love Joe! I do!
...Don't I?
