The Truth Club
“‘Where do you want us to go?’ I’m behaving as if this happens to me all the time.
‘Let’s just get out of here.’ It’s a dream; it must be. They definitely put something in the sushi. I gulp and lean against the wall.
‘Are you all right?’ I don’t answer. I want to run away and hide somewhere. Things like this don’t happen to me. They might have happened to the Sally who wanted a mountain bike, but not to the Sally I am now. Nothing has prepared me for this situation.
‘You’re trembling.’ Nathaniel... touches my arm; his hand feels warm and strong. I flinch. ‘Relax.’ He smiles. ‘You don’t have to have dinner with Larry. I’ve come to rescue you.’ This is when I should say that I don’t want to be rescued, that I want to have dinner with Larry because it will please Greta. But I don’t say anything.
‘If we don’t move fast, Larry will come out here and find you,’ he grins. He’s acting as if this is all a laugh, but it’s actually dreadfully serious.MoreLess
