Sheltered behind Arnold, Camille couldn’t help but stifle a smile, despite the ache in her heart. Arnold’s tongue was as sharp as ever a rapier in court that jabbed at the guilty, and in life, a scalpel that cut to the bone.

“What are you babbling about? I’ve had no work done!” Mrs. Evert clutched her face, which was as taut as a Thanksgiving balloon, red with embarrassment and seething with guilt.

Arnold shook his head dismissively. “Getting older isn’t a crime, but giving people a fright that’s just not on.”

Mrs. Evert was inches away from a fit of apoplexy.

“And who might you be to Camille?” Eunice, propping her mother up, couldn’t help but challenge him.

“And what am I to her.”

Arnold tapped his cheek thoughtfully, turning his gaze to Camille with a look of mock seriousness. “Ms. Camille, she’s asking what I am to you.”

Camille looked at him, her heart pounding a wild rhythm.

Without her response, Arnold’s eyes crinkled with a knowing smile. “If you’re not speaking up, then I guess I’m your boyfriend by default.”

“What?” Both Mrs. Evert and daughter’s jaws dropped in disbelief.
