Beginnings And Ends (Short Story)
““Want me to go in with you?” Jules asked as he pulled the car over near the door—close enough to drop Robin off, but leaving open the option of parking so that they could both go inside.
“No, that’s okay,” Robin said. “This isn’t going to be that hard. And it’s not going to take that long. I mean, if you want to, you can certainly come in—”
“I’ll wait in the car,” Jules said, smiling at him. “I’ve got some phone calls to make.”
“To Yashi and Deb,” Robin realized. Jules would want to tell the to...p members of his staff about his request for a transfer, both so that it wouldn’t come at them out of the blue, and so that they could, if they wanted, request to go with him.
“And to Sam and Alyssa,” Jules said. They’d already called his mom, who had been beyond excited but not surprised by their plans to make her a grandmother.
Robin had called Janey. His sister and her Navy SEAL husband, Cosmo, had been similarly psyched. And then Robin had called Cosmo’s mom, Lois, who was the closest thing to a parent that he had, since his own mother had died when he was a child, and his asshole of a father was … not worth thinking about.MoreLess
