Housewife Gone Wild
Chapter 19
Chapter 19
My morning dance class left me drenched and pleasantly loose–limbed.
Come noon, I called Sally about whether Yvonne was coming home.
“Yvonne’s at the amusement park with Tracy,” Sally informed me. “You should give Tracy a call.”
Tracy had become like a second mother to Yvonne–genuinely devoted and always making time for her.
Not that I hadn’t been that mother once. There was a time when my world revolved around parent–teacher conferences and bedtime stories too.
I didn’t call Tracy. If my daughter smiled more with her, who was I to interfere?
I was about to eat alone when my phone buzzed with an unknown number.
“Hello. Is that Victoria Murphy?” The male voice on the line was warm and unfamiliar.
“Speaking,” I answered automatically before catching myself. “May I ask who’s calling?”
“I’m the student you sponsored years ago.” The earnestness in his voice prickled my skin. “I was hoping we might have lunch today.”
The pause stretched too long. I’d never wanted gratitude, and now wasn’t the time to revisit the past–not when I had my own reasons to keep my distance.
In my previous life, I’d seen enough online stories about scholarship recipients turning on their benefactors to last a lifetime.

“I’m married,” I said quickly. “Meeting men alone… it wouldn’t look right.”
“Bring a friend then,” he offered.
