“The apartment looks lovely,” Dean’s mother notes as she moves around. “And which is your room?”

Oh, I am going to kill him when he gets back. “Did you want to get unpacked?” I ask, hoping to avoid her question.

“No, no, it’s fine. Do you know when Dean will be back?”

I shake my head. It’s been three very long hours. At first, it was fine, we came home, put her bags in the spare room, and then went to the grocery store for provisions that I apparently missed. While I thought I got most of what I needed for our dinner tomorrow, Mrs. Pritchard wanted to make a few special dishes that her family eats each year that she didn’t tell me about.

Then we called her mother, who won’t be in until later tonight, but that phone call only gave me twenty minutes where I was not-so-patiently waiting for Dean to return.

Now, though, we were done adding a few decorations to the tree, final touches she thought would make it look a little more festive, and . . . still no Dean.

“I don’t,” I admit. “I’ll text him.”

My fingers fly over my phone, which hasn’t left my hand, and I send a frantic text.
