“She felt like one big bowl of gelatin.
She couldn’t believe she’d stopped with hello. Couldn’t believe she hadn’t said all the words that were going through her mind. She’d had her perfect chance to tell him exactly what she thought. He hadn’t even asked about the baby.
If she’d needed any kind of sign she was taking the right action, she certainly had it now.
She paid for her milk and forced her feet to move her out the sliding glass doors toward her car. She hated her car, hated it for the me...mories it held.
Tired and sad and mad as hell, she practically threw the plastic sack holding milk in her back seat. She didn’t need him, didn’t need this heartache.
And she didn’t need the entire population watching to see if she broke down in the parking lot. She could feel the curious eyes as she brushed her hair off her neck and moved to open the driver’s side door.
She just wanted to get home and call Grady. Get this whole mess over and done with.

Donovan's voice sounded as his footsteps crossed the asphalt parking lot toward her.MoreLess
