No Turning Back
“He sat with Leah in a booth in the back, complete with a torn fake leather seat held together with packing tape.
No one yelled at him or threatened to spit in his food. He figured that was either Leah’s influence or proof the good people of Sweetwater hadn’t figured out who he was yet. Maybe paying with cash on his previous visits had bought him a few more days of anonymity. But he’d met people, so the word had to be spreading.
Since they spent most of the first fifteen minutes of dinne...r not talking, some folks who might not know them could get the impression they were married. Even now Leah ignored her turkey club and twirled the ketchup bottle around in a circle against the table top. Ten more seconds of that and his brain would blow.
With a dramatic sigh that could only mean trouble, she put the bottle back in the holder. Her shoulders rose and fell as if she were steeling herself for some sort of fight.
He’d been hoping they were done with that part of the evening.MoreLess
