Kiss Them Goodbye
“Her mother could get panicky. Vivian fished her cell from her purse and said, “I’m calling home to say we’re okay. Mama’s a worrier.”
Spike didn’t comment. He was driving the gray van he and Homer used for business pickups and deliveries.
Vivian didn’t get past explaining where they were before Charlotte said, with too much satisfaction, “Why, you two young things just take your time. Best to come slowly when it’s dark. It’s gonna rain, too.” She added a little tale, first about hiring Wazoo—wh...ich they would discuss later—then about Homer Devol stopping by with Wendy. When Vivian hung up, she couldn’t quit smiling, or feeling warm inside.
Spike glanced at her, and glanced at her again. Just as Charlotte had said, it was dark and raindrops had indeed started slanting across the windshield. They were on U.S. 90 and vehicles ahead trailed shuddery pink ribbons from their taillights on the slick road. In those same lights she could see the rain bounce.
