Sorcery And the Single Girl
“This was stupid. I’d made phone calls before. Thousands of them. Why should this one be any different? Why should it make my pulse pound? Make my tongue swell up? Make tremors march up and down my arms, like tiny electric soldiers trying to kick me into action?
Or maybe I was just hung over from mojito therapy the night before.
I wiped my hands against my jeans and reached out one more time for the small white business card. Graeme Henderson. Acquisitions.
This wasn’t fair. I shouldn’t have to ...make the phone call. He should have asked me for my phone number. He should have taken the risk.
But he had. He’d left his card, putting it right on the counter. He had made the first move.
So, really, it was like he had already asked me out, and all I had to do was pick up the phone and say yes. Right?
I palmed the card and leaned back against my headboard, hugging my pillow to my chest. Had I ever been the one to make the first move? Well, there had been that time in eighth grade, when I’d asked Adam Lehrer to the Sadie Hawkins dance.MoreLess
