When they went out, rather than simply standing at his side, he noticed her watching him out of the corner of her eye, her hand on his arm no longer limp, but rather squeezing occasionally, and once or twice stroking his forearm. Her little glances. Her innocent touches. She thought he was oblivious, but he was not. He simply did not want to respond and was frankly confused by the sudden little shows of interest and affection. He was still confused about why she had stayed, but this swing her attitude toward him had him completely confounded.

He was considering the recent changes in her behavior toward him one morning when there was a heavy tap on his door. He opened it to find Rose standing on the other side.

“Yes?” he asked his sister, dreading conflict with her, something they did more than anything since their brother passed.

Rose walked past him and sat on the edge of his bed. “We have to talk.” She said simply, daring him to try to extract her from his room.

Mitch moved over to the chair in the corner and sat down with a huff expecting to get another tongue lashing.

“About what?” he asked gruffly as he took a deep drink from yet another bottle of liquor.

“Two things. First, your excessive drinking and ridiculous behavior. We are losing business. We have been ever since you took over. The books show we are not making enough to cover the place, especially when you are single handedly drinking us dry.”

Mitch sat back and let the bottle dangle from his fingers. “I am not drinking that much...”

“I will not argue with you about it, Mitchell Frost. I tell you, we have no consistent patrons, which means no one is buying liquor and no one is hiring our girls. But at least once a week, you are taking your bride shopping to replace another broken chair or to buy more liquor that only you are enjoying. It has to stop.”

Mitch slapped the air as if to wipe away Rose’s concerns. “What else do you have to complain about?”

“Your bride.”

“She is no business of yours. “Mitch spat out his anger rising.

“Actually, she is, because you are clearly blind as a bat and heartless to boot. She has been here over a month now, God only knows why, and apparently she has actually fallen for your pitiful bitter ass. We all see it. She is clearly tired of being your wife only in public.”

“What of it? She knows her role here, and I have no interest in her! I have made no moves on her.”

“Bull! You might not want to admit it, but we have seen you sneak peeks at her. I have seen you stand outside her door in the middle of the night with your hand raised, just inches away from knocking on her door- no, don’t bother trying to deny it. Despite yourself, you care for her. At least a little.”

“So what if I do? She is my wife. If I wanted to go into her room that is no business at all.
