Verna grew so hot she was sure she would combust, and it had nothing to do with the wool coat. She needed some air.

Finally they went out to the car, but sitting so close to him in the confined space only made her hotter.

“Mind if I open the window a little bit?” she asked.

“Sure. It is warm. Can’t tell what to wear with this weather. One day it’s spring, the next it’s winter,” he said, almost babbling.

“So tell me, how was your first day?” she asked, getting them both on solid territory.

He recounted his day, his meeting with the kids, and then told her about his idea for the college fair.

“That’s a great idea.” She angled herself in her seat and took in his solid profile. “I’ll make sure they get permission slips.”

He told her about his brief conversation with April, which sparked the idea. “I got the impression that she doesn’t see college in her future.”

“Unfortunately, most of the kids don’t. April has had it rough. Living at Home is the first taste of stability in her life. I think going to the fair is just what she needs. They all need to see that there is possibility out there and that they are worthy. That’s our biggest hurdle, getting them to believe that they have value.”

Ronald snatched a glance at her, stirred by the rising passion in her voice. Her features were tight and pinched as if she was in pain. She was staring straight ahead, but he was pretty sure she wasn’t looking at the Saturday-night traffic.
