“I can’t believe you’re missing practice for me,” Janet said,
feeling unduly guilty about it. “What did you tell the coach?”
He rubbed his stomach and grinned. “Something at lunch didn’t
agree with me.”
“Yeah, I can be very disagreeable,” she said, pouting.
He laughed and kissed her. “No worries, I still love you.”
“I really do appreciate this, Wes” she said as they got into his
car and buckled up.
He shrugged. “I still don’t see how this helps. What are you
planning on doing? I don’t see her volunteering anything like that, especially
with you…her lover’s daughter. Sorry, alleged.”
“I thought that would give me the opening I need, actually,” she
said.
“Seriously?”
“Just make sure you mention my last name, okay?" Janet said, excitedly. "I want her to
think of my dad. I’ll be able to tell just from her face. You can tell all
sorts of things from body language and facial expressions, you know.”
