“For a minute I almost thought we were a real family.”
ОглавлениеAbby didn’t know how to respond. She didn’t want to face reality. “Good night, Jack.” She made a move to walk past him.
His voice was low and she barely heard his “Thank you.”
She stopped. “For what?”
“I know we’re just stand-ins for each other. That you and I aren’t married and raising these kids, that all this is temporary. But it’s so nice that it’s hard to believe it’s pretend.”
She was moved by his words. But Jack was right—this was only temporary. She turned to go before she did something she’d regret.
He didn’t move as she swept past him and into her room. He heard her shut the door and gently move away. Good thing. If she had stayed, he would’ve made a fool of himself and kissed her—again.
