“I’m sorry I was late,” John said.

Cordy frowned, wondering if she was imagining it.

Somehow, this John was different from the usual John, who was more aloof.

Still, she wiggled against his hold, not sure what he was talking about.

“Did you get the wrong door? Let me go…”

Cordy was left speechless.
