“Oh, oh, this.” She grabbed the diaper bag. Nervously she pushed it under her arm and behind her back so that he couldn’t see it, but he’d already seen it.
“Yeah, tha . . .” His words trailed off once he noticed the little fella sitting on the couch. “And that.” He pointed, stepped around Deborah without waiting for an invite inside her house, then walked over to the couch. He pointed at her son as if he was an alien. “Who’s this lit...tle guy?”
“He’s my son,” was what Deborah wanted to say. That’s all she had to say. That’s what she should have said. But that look on Lynox’s face, it was confusion, puzzlement, but behind it all was a look of fear.
