As they sat on the bottom bench, Jimmy asked her, “Are you still cold?” Before she could answer, he helped her slip her arms through the sleeves of his jacket.
“Thank you.” For a few silent seconds, she waited for him to say something. But she noticed under the dim lights that he only stared out at the raging fireworks from miles away. “So, um…Where’s Sheila?”
