Chapter Six

Caleb closed his eyes. When he opened them Mr. Thompson’s hands rested on his waist, much too close to his tool belt, which held an assortment of sharp and very lethal-looking items.

“You look rather worried, son,” Mr. Thompson said in a voice as slow as molasses in the winter, but his eyes were as sharp as glass. “Should I be?”

“I made her cry,” Caleb confessed, swiping his hand across his face. “It’s not the first time. I don’t mean to. I’m sorry, sir.”

Surprisingly, Mr. Thompson’s hands moved away from the tool belt. He leaned casually against the side of the truck. “You’re that professor at the college who plays that music she doesn’t like, aren’t you?”

Caleb wasn’t sure if he should breathe easier or not. “Yes, sir.”

Mr. Thompson glanced toward the house. “I might be the one that owes you an apology.”

“What?” Caleb’s brows bunched in confusion. “I don’t understand.”

Grace’s father’s troubled gaze slowly came back to Caleb. He turned and removed a toolbox from a locked compartment in the truck’s bed. “I better go in. Meet me at the city park on the north side in thirty minutes. We’ll talk.”

“All right,” Caleb agreed, but Mr. Thompson had already moved on. Puzzled, Caleb got in the car and started the motor. He didn’t back out, however, until the front door opened. As much as he strained to see Grace, he only caught a glimpse of her white blouse before Mr. Thompson went inside and the door closed.

Putting the ’Vette in Reverse, Caleb backed and headed toward the park. Another appointment he didn’t plan to be late for.
