The truth was that he hadn''t slept more than a few hours last night, nor did he want to be alone in his house with his memories and doubts. "I didn''t expect you in today, with Suit''s wedding and all." He didn''t turn around but stopped pounding the ball. "Jesse," Alisha said, sticking her head through his office door.

Jesse could trace his self-doubt and second-guessing back to that bloody day. He was trying to steady his hands and empty his mind. As he slammed the ball into the glove over and over again, he stared out his office window at Stiles Island and the morning sunlight reflecting off the dark blue waters surrounding it.
