We ended up going back to Robert’s house because it was closer. I had never been to his house before, so I was surprised when he pulled up to a beautiful two-story colonial on a quiet residential street not far from Adam's parents’ place. I parked my car and got out. I had followed him over and Rob was already waiting for me on the sidewalk.

“This is not what I expected when you suggested going to your house,” I said, as he took my hand and led me up the steps to the porch.

He put the key in the lock and turned the knob, turning on a light in the darkened hallway. “Were you expecting a bachelor pad like where Wyatt used to live?” he asked with a laugh.

“Actually, yes.” I followed him inside, finding myself in a cozy, comfortable space fit more for a family of four than a man living by himself.

He turned on a floor lamp in the spacious living room, casting a soft light over the comfortable, fashionable furniture. The man had style. “What about Edgar? We can go get him and bring him over here,” he offered.

The fact he remembered my beast of a dog made me like him even more. “That’s okay. My neighbor down the road, Mr. Sheehan, will take care of him. I called him earlier and he was going to go by and let him out and feed him. He usually stays a bit and fusses on him for a while.”

“You’re okay letting some random guy in your house?” Robert asked in disbelief.

“He’s not a random guy,” I chuckled. “I’ve known him since I was five. He used to coach my little league t-ball team.”

“Okay, as long as you’re sure.” I watched him light a couple of candles on the mantle of the rather ornately painted fireplace. It had been filled in with brick and Robert had put a dried flower arrangement in the hearth. He was the first man I had encountered that didn’t view decorating as painting the walls white and putting a futon in the corner. Even Adam’s, who wasn’t a typical dumb guy, the first apartment looked like a hotel room.

“When I moved to Southport I decided I didn’t want something temporary. I planned to put down roots. I didn’t want a sparse apartment that I’d have to move out of when I wanted something bigger. Then this place went up for auction and I snatched it up for a bottom-dollar price. At the time, not many people were looking for property in a town with one coffee shop and a rundown bar.”

“That’s all going to change in the next few years now that ground has broken on that massive development just outside of town.” I walked over to a large built-in bookshelf that took up most of the far wall. It was filled with every type of book you could imagine, but there was a set that instantly caught my eye.

I pulled out an old book, the dust jacket yellowed with age, my eyes practically popping out of my head.
