Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
Deacon Roth was alone on the tennis court, hitting ball after ball as he tried to clear his mind.
Usually, Deacon was not the type to second guess a decision that he had made. He believed that once something was done, it was done, there was no use in going over it again and again if you could not change things. But when it came to the issue of Haley Slater, Deacon was once again behaving in a manner in which he normally would not have, he was seriously doubting himself.
Had he really made the right decision in deciding to stay married to the woman?
As the days passed, the question popped into his mind more and more. Despite separation being the idea they had come up with in the hotel room. In the end, they had decided not to go through with their divorce. It was a decision that Deacon resented more and more. What had he been thinking?!
