Chapter 63

Ben's Story

I’m impressed. You finally gave that girl a glimpse of the real you, Molly said.

I sat in Spanish class, last hour of the day. Eavesdropping again?

I wouldn’t, if you would tell me. Instead, I have to resort to reading Emma’s thoughts.

Nice. I shook my head as I half listened to the teacher’s lecture.

Actually, she’s beaming from ear to ear. I didn’t need to try very hard.

You’re awfully bubbly when you delve into my personal life, I said. How ya doing? Seriously?

The mood changed as her thoughts slowed. I’m good.

You sure?

Yeah. I’m sure. I knew her well enough to know she wasn’t. How would you feel if I let Jorgenson bring someone else in? she asked, after moments of silence.

Someone? Or Bianca?

Benjamin, you know that part’s not up to me.

Molly, I can handle this. I don’t expect you to go on patrol, but I will not work with Bianca Beringer. My words were firm, as my blood pressure rose. I would never have guessed you’d change your mind and suggest her. You’ve never liked her. What’re you thinking?

Molly was silent for a minute, and then finally responded. You’re right. I’m being ridiculous.

Damned right, I had this.
