Not Just Friends (Brookfield)
“She was glad it was almost time for her to close shop. The pounding rain had made for a boring day and the rejection haunted her.
Connor had been so close to kissing her. What happened? She’d been wracking her mind since. She didn’t think her breath had stunk and she’d checked her teeth for food after he left. No loose piece of barley lingered. So why had he not kissed her?
Sitting on the barstool behind the counter, she knew why. He didn’t like her that way and she had to face it. It was time ...to get over this little Connor fantasy she’d been having all these years. Connor would never like her that way.
And she had misread several things last evening. No wonder he’d hightailed it out of there. He hadn’t wanted to hurt her feelings.
There was no use staying open. She was in a crappy mood and the rain wasn’t going to stop anytime soon. With the sun starting to set, it was going to get nasty out on the roads with the melting snow. She left her stool and locked up.
Normally she walked through the store and made sure everything was in order.MoreLess
