“Your mother seems nice,” Roger said. They were sitting in the dim theater, waiting for the movie to start. “And your daughter, too.”

“Thank you. I think they’re both pretty terrific.”

“I hated my wife’s mother,” Roger said. “Classic evil mother-in-law syndrome. She was a lot of our problem—mine and my ex-wife’s.”

Jenny sipped from the Coke she’d picked up at the snack bar on their way in. So far, the date was going well. Jenny didn’t feel nervous at all. “Come on, Roger. You don’t really mean that your ex-mother-in-law was evil, do you?”

He laughed and tossed a few chocolate covered raisins into his mouth. “She was. She is. Definitely. The devil incarnate.”

“I don’t believe that.”

He shrugged. “I’m not going to go into detail. It would ruin the evening. Did you like your mother-in-law?”

“Yes, we always got along quite well, as a matter of fact.”

“What about your father-in-law?”

“Adored him.”

“Next you’re going to say that your husband and your mother never shared a harsh word.”

“I wouldn’t go that far. People in families do have their differences. But they really did like each other a lot.”

“I can’t stand this. Perfect in-laws. It’s not normal and you know it.” Roger laughed again, and she laughed, too. The lights dimmed. Popcorn boxes and beverage containers began to dance across the screen.

Jenny settled back in her seat, a little relieved that the show had started. She’d been just about to mention Nick, her husband’s best friend, whom she’d barely tolerated for over a decade—and who had ended up becoming her own dearest friend.

Her dearest friend—and now something scarily more.

Not that she would have mentioned that part to Roger.

But still, it was better not to go into the subject of Nick at all.
