Lessons From a Younger Lover (2010)
““Hey, Gwen. You look good.”
“I never would have told you where I was staying if I had known you would just show up. How did you get my room number? Never mind that…What do you want?”
“I need to talk to you before our court date tomorrow. Can I come in?”
A waiter came around the corner, pushing the rolling cart of food Gwen had ordered. Now, both appetites she’d worked up earlier were gone. Still, she stood aside as both the room service and Joe walked into her hotel room. When she turned to get... her purse and tip the waiter, she noticed the phone lying on the bed.
“I’ll have to call you back,” Gwen said to Ransom. Her tone was clipped, businesslike.
“Did I hear you say Joe? Is he there?”
“Yes.”
“Gwen, is everything okay?”
Gwen took a breath and tried to calm down. There was no need to get Ransom upset. “Yes, everything’s fine. I’ll call you back.”
“Call me as soon as he leaves.”
“Okay.”
“Gwen.”
“Yes?”
“I love you.”
Gwen slowly placed the phone on the receiver and willed her nerves to calm as she turned around.MoreLess
