Kayley stared at the computer trying to get her eyes to uncross so she could finish the line of code she had been working on, but it was obvious that wasn’t happening. She was tired. It had been over six hours since she’d sat down to work. Her body hadn’t recovered from the incident, as she liked to refer to it, from Friday night. She needed to take a break.

She stood up and gingerly stretched, mindful of her bruised ribs and sore knee. Her left hand ached from being used so much, but she needed to work to keep her mind occupied. Not only was she trying to keep Friday night out of her head, but she was also trying to stop reminiscing about spending time up close and personal with Billy and Craig. Why had she been hurt when she finally got the chance to lie between them in bed? It wasn’t fair.

That would never happen again. It just wasn’t in the stars for her. She sighed and walked gingerly out the door and down the short hall to the kitchen. Time for something to eat. She had plenty of groceries thanks to Sam’s grocery run on Saturday. Bless his heart, he’d been well instructed by Bea before they arrived to make himself scarce while they talked. He’d spent the time making sure she had anything she might need for the next two weeks.

She pulled out a frozen dinner of lasagna and, after reading the instructions, popped it in the microwave on high for eight minutes. Then she poured a glass of tea and sat at the little table to wait for the microwave to signal that her dinner was ready. The sound of someone outside her door aroused her curiosity. She’d already gotten the mail. Her mail carrier had heard she’d been hurt and brought it all the way to the door for her earlier.

She hobbled over to the door and looked out the window next to it but saw no one around. She craned her neck to look toward the other side of the house but saw nothing moving. Maybe it had been a dog walking across her porch. Finally, she gave up and eased over to the door. Keeping the chain on the catch, she opened the door just enough to look out and saw an envelope on the mat in front of the door.

Kayley slipped her hand through the small opening and grabbed the corner of the envelope, dragging it closer so she could pick it up and slip it through the opening. She closed the door and locked the deadbolt before turning the envelope over to look for something to tell her who it was from.

The ding of the microwave scared her to death. She gave a small scream and jumped, dropping the pouch to the floor. She picked it back up and carried it over to the table where she dropped it and went to see about her meal.

After uncovering her lasagna, Kayley carried it by the edges to the table and sat down to eat.
