Second Time Around
“He’d been expecting a call, of course, but not quite so soon, although he’d noticed today how tired Suzie looked.

Sharon seemed unaware of any problems but, then, Keith had gone to great lengths to ensure that he was the one who collected Bobby every day.
Much as Suzie was worried about Sharon, he still didn’t trust her to keep her comments and c...riticism to herself. He couldn’t keep them apart for ever, but he’d do his best until Bobby had settled into the new routine.
