Chapter Five

The night continued with Nicholas and Rhoda enjoying great conversation about their likes, dislikes, jobs, and so forth. Seemingly on purpose, their friends had spent a lot of time away from the table to give them a chance to chat and that Nicholas was quite thankful for.

Despite the fact Alexander deemed her shy, Rhoda appeared to be the exact opposite. Perhaps the liquor made her talk a little more, but she’d only had the two glasses of Moscato the entire evening.

Perhaps she was one of those who needed to be prodded to talk. Or maybe since they’d found some common ground, she’d become more comfortable in revealing things to him, which he loved.

No question, Rhoda showed herself to be just what the doctor needed. A sexy female who loved some of the same things he did; she worked in his field, which meant she’d understand his crazy schedule; and she had a sense of humor that he already found himself falling for. Nothing like a woman who could crack a joke, even though he couldn’t. She traded comedy jabs with Sharnette about their high school fashion disasters and bogus hairdos, making him and Alex chuckle throughout the night. The ladies truly did have a bond and Nicholas wanted to be part of Rhoda’s life to complete the happy circle of friends.

“Heh, ya know Nick. Rhoda can really dance. I recall the first time I took her to a bar, when we were underage. You remember that time, Rho? We had such an awesome time.”

“Yeah, it wasn’t so fun when we got home and my mom figured out I snuck out wicha. I’ll never forget that either.” Rhoda gulped her water.

Alexander grimaced, “Really? Naughty girls. I can’t believe you got away with that.”

“We had fake ID’s we borrowed from our friends. We didn’t drink any alcohol, but we did dance with some older men.”

Nicholas chuckled, “Hmph. And no one noticed you girls might not be old enough to be in the place?”

“I’m not sure if they did. We were so cute and friendly!” Sharnette winked at the both of them.

“Yeah we were. And—” Rhoda stopped talking and looked straight ahead of her. Suddenly the smile left her face and turned into a frown.

“Uh oh, Rho? What’s up, babe? You saw somethin’?”

Rhoda sighed and shook her head. “One…two…three…”

Nicholas cocked an eyebrow and glanced at Sharnette who turned around then shifted back in her chair. “Oh boy. Now before you say I invited her…”

Alexander grinned and took another swig of his beer. “Well, well…”

“Stop lookin’!” Sharnette playfully smacked his knee.

“Hiiiiii… girls! Ooh, Sharnette, and here’s that fine man of yours. How are ya darlin’?”

Alexander stood up and kissed Moira on the cheek. “Good, Moira. Very well, thank you.”

“Hi, babe. Nice to see ya here.” Sharnette hugged Rhoda.

Nicholas had already stood but Rhoda hadn’t moved. Who was she? She definitely looked a lot like Rhoda.

Sister?

“Hey Nick, this is Rhoda’s sister, Moira. Moira, this is Dr. Nicholas Fairlight.”

His eyes met her brown gaze. She looked him up and down, licking her lips.
