““Hey, Charity,” I say as I descend the steps, making a mental note to find a bobby pin later when I’m done speaking with her. “Hey, Alissa. Do you have time for a quick soda or something?” “Sure. But I don’t have a car, still.” “No big deal. I’ll come get you. Are you home?” “Yep.” The doorbell rings. “Hold on a minute, Charity, someone’s at the door.” “I’ll hang up and see you in a second,” she says. I close my phone as I race down two sets of stairs and then peek through the curtains nex...t to the front door. Charity is standing on the porch with a big grin on her face. I fling open the door and smile. “Wow, that was fast.” “I was really close and thought, what the heck … I’ll go see if she’s home.” I swing the door open wider. “Come in. We can have something to drink in here if you want.” “Great.” She comes in and stands in the foyer. She suddenly seems nervous. “What’s wrong?” I put my hand on her elbow. She looks so vulnerable standing there with her big belly protruding out. I swear she’s even bigger than she was last week, and before I would have said that wouldn’t be possible. I’m not even going to look at her ankles, because if they’re anything like mine, it’s going to be scary.MoreLessRead More Read Less
