SHORT EXCERPT from Date #3:
Scott
stared across the table at me. His
eyes
were concentrating fiercely. He
must
have approved, because then he smiled for the first time. A thin, satisfied smile. No teeth showing.
“Let’s
get right to it then, shall we?” he said.
I watched as he pulled a sheet of paper from the inside
pocket of his
jacket. He carefully
unfolded it. Then he
took out a pen.
He read
from the sheet in front of him.
“The
company may decide to move me to New York.
Would you be willing to move to another city with me?” His eyes lifted to meet
mine.
I
gulped. “Is that a
check-list?”
“Yes.” He
said apologetically. “I
know. How embarrassing
to use paper. But Mom
doesn’t trust computers.”
Mom?
His mom wrote a checklist?
“Great for anyone who enjoys zipping through a lighthearted read in a single, short sitting." BOOKLIST
