Jaded (2015)
“By Saturday—the day of the craft fair and silent auction—it had blossomed into a deceptive flowering plant akin to the sweet clover growing in Ansel’s pasture. Sure, the yellow blossoms were pleasant, but if they went a little moldy, they could poison the herd. Maybe I leaned toward the melodramatic, but I saw no reason to push my luck and risk being seen with Dodd.
Momma was working at the diner, so I decided to skip the parade.
I opened a book and curled up on the couch as the high sc...hool band marched down Main Street. I could hear an occasional air horn and lots of yelling. Dodd would wonder where I was. Even though we hadn’t planned to walk around together, we had discussed spying on each other throughout the day. His easy smile had become a tonic to me, dulling my problems like an anesthetic, but his words from our Christmas-light adventure still stung. I can’t picture Neil Blaylock hurting your family … He’s a strong Christian man.MoreLess
