“What?”
“Nothing…” She shakes her head, and the brat that she is refuses to insert her opinion by saying anything more. So typical of Abby.
I harden my stare to get her to break, but all she does is shrug.
Damn her. Her silence could mean a million things, but I know she won’t budge either.
When she realizes I’m just as stubborn, she just shrugs. “It’s nothing… honest. I’m happy you finally have found someone that makes you think twice about them.”
Once. Twice. A million times… not that I’ll admit that. She totally has me there.
Since I don’t say anything, she breaks our silence with, “When you finally decide if he’s worthy of introducing us, I’d love to meet the man who’s got you tied in knots.”
“I’m not in knots,” comes out defensive, even to my stubborn ears.
Her phone buzzes, and I’d bet my last paycheck that it’s Drew. Only he has this effect on her.
Sheepishly, she shrugs. “I gotta go. Please don’t overthink things. Just enjoy the moment and let your walls down, Syd.”
“Go be with Loverboy,” I tease as I push her in the direction of the door. “Tell him congratulations and that he rocked the court last night.”
She gathers her purse on the counter. “Will do. Take care you. Love you.”
“Love you, too!” I holler as she reaches the door.
When she leaves, it doesn’t even take an entire breath, and my mind’s back on Vince.
What am I going to do with him?
