ОглавлениеMicah’s touch scrambled her thoughts.
Her hopes that he hadn’t noticed the tremor in her voice faded when he said, “It’s going to be okay.” He flashed her a smile.
Lost in her despair, she’d failed to see how much power his grins still had to move her, reminding her how they’d laughed together after singings. She realized how much she missed that.
Something else she’d thrown away when she’d tossed him out of her life.
“Tell me the truth, Micah,” she blurted. “Why are you helping me?”
“Why wouldn’t I? You’re pregnant and—”
“You don’t have to feel obligated because you’re the one who found me.”
He shook his head, sadness dimming his eyes. “After all this time, Katie Kay, I thought you knew me better than that.”
She winced, realizing how she had wounded him. It hadn’t been intentional. She wanted to know the truth about why a man whom she’d treated poorly would help her.
No, it was more than helping. He wanted to be certain she and the boppli were taken care of. He was a gut man. Better than she deserved.
