Stranded in Paradise
“She purchased the cat, and included the toy with a large box of chocolates and had the gifts mailed to Stella along with a note thanking her for her hospitality. Stella had offered more than hospitality; she had offered new insight. Tess had sadly been lacking in that commodity. Stella also offered friendship. Friendships took time to cultivate and nurture. Over the years Tess had worked too many long hours and weekends to develop close relationships. She needed to change that.
As she was paying for the chocolates, her eyes centered on a box of nuts and she thought of Len, whose frantic calls she had yet to return. They would serve as a succinct answer to his pleas for help. Nuts to you.
“I’ll take a box of nuts, too.”
“Certainly.” The clerk reached behind her and snagged a five-pound assortment of almond Macadamias. “Will there be anything else?”
“Yes. I want to enclose this note with the gift.” She scribbled a brief message that read, “Thanks, but not interested. Tess.”
