Twenty-Six

Tony took in the pallor of Angela’s skin. Damn, he should have insisted she stay in the hospital another day.

Am I overreacting? Or did her near-death experience have him in overprotective mode?

Spending the past few days together, he’d gotten to know her on a deeper level. Growing up abroad made her unfamiliar with the iconic television shows of their youth. She preferred reading over television. He gathered it was her mother using her looks to get what she wanted in life that skewed Angela in the opposite direction—using her brains and work ethic to take care of herself.

And while he’d picked up on how independent she was when working together in Texas, he witnessed how hard it was for her to rely on others for help, even in the hospital after nearly dying.

He’d gained her trust based on the bits and pieces she’d told him about her family. He couldn’t let her down now.

He rubbed his temple. Think. Think. Think!

Screw it. He needed time and information. It was better to overreact than not do enough.

He had a plan roughed out by the time the taxi took the exit for the airport. “You have something you can, uh, camouflage with after you’re inside?”

“Yes,” she said after a few seconds, not questioning him.

“Can you make it down to arrivals on your own?”

She nodded with her gaze fixed on his face.

“Have him circle once after you drop me off on the lower level. I’ll text you when I’m coming around. You got me?”

Her head bobbed in the same near-silent communication they’d established in Texas. It’d worked then. Been on the verge of eerie how easily they read each other. It felt right in a comforting way.
