It's such a great thing to ask your partner - "WHY do you love me?" Not in an "I don't understand why anyone would love me" kind of way, but in a "Why do YOU love me" kind of way. Does that makes sense? If you've never asked that of your significant other, I highly recommend it. When I was teaching couples at the studio, I always asked them to say it. It's amazing the effect such a little question can have on a relationship.

Parker's line about becoming gay was the highlight of the chapter for me. Can't wait to read more. Thanks Kpatch.

Yes! Phloe belong together!!! So what it took them all these years to figure it out and Chloe damn near went through the whole Kiriakis family. Philip and Chloe have known together almost their whole lives. Even as friends they had so much chemistry and such a strong connection! Phloe is my favorite couple because they always have so much passion, chemistry and a connection that never really went away! Great chapter I can't wait to read MORE!

THE CONDO
Chloe: You said you love me.
Philip: And I meant it.
Chloe: Why? Why do you love someone like me? I’m so high maintenance.
Parker: That’s true. Look up high maintenance in the dictionary and you’ll see Mommy’s picture in there.
Philip: Yup. You are. But so is every other woman I’ve ever known.
Parker: Damn, he’s good. I should be taking notes.
Chloe: I’m serious Philip. I need to know. You just said I wear you out. So why do you love me?
Philip: Because you’re the most exasperating woman I know. You keep me on my toes, that’s for sure.
Chloe gave him a disapproving look.
Philip: Okay, I’ll be serious. Why do I love you. I love you because you’re sweet, you’re caring, you’re a great mother, you’re a good dancer, you’re honest to a fault, you’d sacrifice everything for the people you love, you’re modest, you’re smart, you’re funny, you’re talented, you have the voice of an angel ... how long a list did you want, because I can go on.
Chloe: You didn’t say “beautiful.”
Parker: Scratching “modest” off the list.
Philip: That’s because your looks have nothing to do with the way I feel about you. It’s more like a fringe benefit, but it’s not the reason.
Parker: This is good stuff! ‘Scuse me. Do either of you have an extra pen? I just ran out of ink.
Chloe: I didn’t mean that to sound immodest. It’s just ... you’re the only man I know who didn’t list my looks in the top two reasons they love me.
Philip: Does that mean I pass the test?
Chloe shook her head.
Chloe: Philip, I ... I’m sorry. I still need to go.
Philip: What???
Chloe: I need to leave. I need some air.
Philip felt his blood pressure rising and he tried to curb his anger.
Philip: Chloe! If you leave ... If you leave, this is it for us. It’s the end. This is a now-or-never moment in our lives. We can’t go on like this. I won’t wait forever.
Parker: Okay, who believes he means that? For all of you who said yes, I have a bridge I’d like to sell you.
Chloe: Is that an ultimatum?
Philip: Maybe.
Parker: Uh oh. Daddy’s in trouble now.
Chloe: I can’t give you an answer right now. I need to think. Please Philip, I just need to think.
Philip: Fine. Whatever. ... Wait. This is yours.
He placed a bag from the Oceanside Resort on the dining room table.
Chloe: I can’t accept a gift from you, Philip.
Philip: Damn it. Just open it.
Chloe opened the bag.
Chloe: A new iPod.
Philip: It’s not new. I went back to the beach and found it. While I was waiting for my connecting flight in Tampa, I went into one of those electronics stores in the airport, and they cleaned it up. So it’s good as new.
Chloe: I can’t believe you found it for me.
Philip: By now, you should know that I would do anything for you.
Chloe: Thank you Philip.
Philip: Yeah, whatever. No problem.
Chloe: I’m gonna go. I’ll be ....
Her sentence trailed off. She bent down and gave Parker a kiss before leaving the apartment. She took her iPod and put her ear buds in her ears as she waited for the elevator.
To be continued ...

Ooh Ooh, I think I may have the next line: She took her iPod and put her ear buds in her ears as she waited for the elevator
Then she suddenly took the ear buds out & ran back into the apartment while shouting: I love you Philip!!!
