Jared’s reminder made my face flush instantly. I’d been in such a rush earlier that I hadn’t even checked the mirror after my shower. If I’d realized those hickeys were still visible, I would’ve just thrown on a turtleneck.

Jared looked like he’d taken another hit. He bit down in bitter silence, staring out the window and saying nothing.

‘Does he think I did it on purpose?‘ I wondered to myself.

Yvonne was completely clueless, happily staring out at the city lights. She turned to Jared and asked with a bright smile, “Where are we going for dinner tonight?”

Jared wasn’t really paying attention anymore. He said in a detached tone, “Let your mom choose where to

eat.”

So I took both Jared and Yvonne to that Mexican restaurant Nathan had taken me to last time.

The restaurant had a play area for kids–a great chance for Yvonne to build her confidence and practice her English. She eagerly ran off to play by herself.

Back at the table, Jared looked like he’d just sobered up, still out of it. His eyes kept drifting off, sometimes landing on me and staying there for a while.

As for me, I just kept glancing over in Yvonne’s direction.

Out of the blue, Jared asked, “Is Edward really that great?”

I nodded. “Yeah, he’s helped me a lot. He’s a decent person.”

“So, those two buildings at your high school—they’re his work?” Jared asked, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
