Отрывок из книги
“What are we doing?” Jensen wanted to know. The piece of ice he was chewing on was instantly swallowed.
“I don’t know. Eating?” I played dumb.
.....
That evening after getting home from work, I decided to try calling Jensen. Coming into a cold, dark, and lonely house, I noticed the answering machine blinking the number one. My stomach was a ball of nerves as I pressed play. It was Jensen … finally. “Mia, call me, okay? I need to talk to you.” The message was short and sweet. Was I ready for this? I thought so when I was at work, but now I wasn’t so sure. Thinking that maybe he had news about Savannah he wanted to share with me, I set my book bag down on the couch and decided to call him. As I picked up the phone and punched in the numbers to his dorm, my stomach clenched with each ring. After the tenth ring Erik answered.
“Yeah! Keep your panties on!” he bellowed into the phone.
