Whisper's Edge
“Wine and Diner served up a bodacious burger, and he thought that ordering it would make his appetite return but he seriously didn’t know if he could get the sandwich past his lips.
“Something wrong, sugar?”
Ben looked at Sunny and attempted to smile. “No, Sunny, everything looks fine, but I think I’ll have a Coke instead of just water.”
Sunny gave him a wink. “Coming right up.”
It was well past lunch and the diner was nearly empty. Ben was glad. He didn’t want to run into anybody who wanted to ...make small talk. Hopefully, the fizz in the Coke would help to settle his stomach. He missed Kate so much that sleeping and eating were becoming damned difficult. He even snapped at sweet little Savannah when she stopped over to ask him to replace the mailbox in front of the office. After Kate broke his already battered heart he didn’t want to go anywhere near the woman. Deep down he knew that her reaction was out of some sort of misplaced fear, but Ben was too wounded to muster up the energy to sort all of that out.MoreLess
