Blind Date Setup.
Otherwise known, in Mila's mind, as a colossally bad idea.
She'd done the blind date thing before-recently, in fact-but she'd never expected to wind up at one like this. Her nerves were so frayed that she almost forgot the lines she and Forrest had rehearsed. Not that it mattered; even if she remembered, she could barely get the words out.
If only her date was a stranger, she might have managed.
But she knew Janice.
She knew her, and so did her father; they'd worked together on business deals more than once. Doing something this awkward in front of a business partner's daughter-someone her own age, sure, but still-was downright humiliating.
Mila's ears burned with embarrassment. She shot a pleading look at Forrest, who sat at the table, head bowed, shoulders twitching ever so slightly-probably trying not to laugh. He didn't look up, making it clear he had no intention of bailing her out.
Left with no choice, Mila met Janice's increasingly perplexed stare. She cleared her throat, wincing inwardly at how awkward she sounded. "Um, excuse me, Janice, I'm sorry to interrupt..."
"Huh?" Janice blinked in confusion.
She glanced at Forrest sitting opposite her, saw that he was still staring at his hands, silent and withdrawn, and sensed that something was definitely off.
Before Janice could say anything, Mila-still standing awkwardly by the door- finally forced herself to speak. The line she blurted out wasn't even the one she and Forrest had agreed on last night. "I—I'm sorry. I just... Can we end this whole thing? This blind date, I mean. I..."
"Why?" Janice was totally baffled.
"I'll explain," Forrest finally looked up, unable to hide the smile tugging at his lips. He gave Janice an apologetic nod. "I'm truly sorry, Ms. Burke."
He'd tried to be gentle, but Janice wasn't stupid. The truth hit her in a rush. "You're making a fool of me!"
