“I’ve probably bored you silly,” she said at the conclusion of her life’s story. “But it’s all brought me here. And I don’t regret losing the job. I need time to figure out what I want out of life.”

Lamar finished eating. He placed his silverware in the center of his place and perched awkwardly on the edge of the chair, ready to charge out of the room.

Would it be too obvious if she left right after him?

“No man in your life?” Max asked suddenly.

A smile spread across her face. “I have been seeing someone, but I’m not sure how he’s going to take the sudden changes I’m contemplating. He’s not too happy with me right now.”

Dale patted her hand. “Well, if it’s meant to be... You’ve heard it before. You do what you feel is best for you. If he’s the right fellow, it’ll work itself out.”

Lamar stood and carried his plate to the sink. “Fine meal, Dale. Thanks. Think I’ll go into town for a bit.”

Mandy carried her plate to the sink too, reaching around Lamar to throw her paper napkin in the under-sink trash can. “I think I’ll take a walk,” she said. “Later, if I could, I’d like to make a few phone calls. My cell phone’s not working out here.”

“Absolutely. Come back in whenever you’re ready. And don’t worry about the charges. It’s a business line, inexpensive.” Dale nodded at the wall phone.
