couldn’t enjoy it. Not when she had managed to makedoubt everything I've believed for the last few years.

“Why are you so quiet?” she asked as she set her milkshake down. “Are you thinking about what | just told you?”

The last sentence was said with a smirk as she leaned back against her chair.

“Of course not,” | lied, “I am just wondering how I'm going to get Calvin and Gunner to forgive me. No matter which angle | look at
