#Chapter 2 – He Is Trash

“Abby, these are so good,” Leah says, humming slightly as she chews her lemon poppyseed mu ffin.

They’re a specialty of mine.

Leah, Chloe, and I have a standing afternoon tea date in the capital. Once a week, we get together to

catch up on everything we’ve missed.

“Thank you,” I say, blushing slightly. I have a contract to provide desserts for this restaurant and a few

others.

“Your desserts are getting better and better,” Chloe adds. She’s already finished her blueberry scone

and has several others in a box to take home to her mother.

“All thanks to you guys,” I say. “You’re my first tasters after all.”

Leah wipes some stray sugar off the edge of her lip. “A role I treasure.”

“You’ll never guess who came into the restaurant the other night,” I say, doing my best to sound

nonchalant.

“Who?” Chloe asks, pushing her hair behind her ears.

“A member of Karl’s staff. He wanted to make a reservation.”

Leah looks up, closing the compact mirror with a loud snap. “Tell me you didn’t say yes to him!”

I laugh. “I told him we’re reserved three months out. He doesn’t stand a chance.”

Chloe grins and high fives me. Across the table, Leah gives me an approving look. “Good, I’m proud of

you, girlie.”

“I know you guys never really liked him…”

Chloe shakes her head. “I liked him at first, but he dragged you along way longer than he needed to.

He never treated you right.”
