CHAPTER 18

“Tygue, I said no!”

“You always say no. Besides, I don’t care what you say!”

“Go to your room!” There was a moment of fierce glaring between them and Tygue gave in first. It was fortunate for him because his mother was in no mood to fool around. She had gotten in just after four in the morning. Tillie had left at six-thirty. And it was now only seven. Kate had had two and a half hours of sleep. This was not the day for Tygue to decide to give Bert a bath before school, with her best soap from Licia. Any other day, Kate would have laughed. Today, she wasn’t laughing. And her head was still full of what had happened in L.A. She called Tygue back when breakfast was ready. “Are you going to be reasonable now?” But he said not a word as he sat down to his cereal. She drank her coffee in silence, and then suddenly she remembered something. It was in her suitcase. “I’ll be right back.” It wasn’t really the right time to give it to him, but maybe it was what they both needed. A silly moment. Of her spoiling him and his feeling loved. She had felt so lonely driving home last night. As though she had lost. But she had forced herself out. No one had sent her away. The whole thing was stupid. So what if the guy remembered a football player named Harper? Why did she have to leave like that? And she knew Stu would be angry at her. She had arranged for the hotel to deliver a message to him first thing in the morning: “Was called home unexpectedly, please cancel magazine interview. Terribly sorry. Thank you for everything. Love, Kate.” But he’d be mad anyway. She knew it. And she was angry at herself as well. And then with a soft whisper of pleasure she remembered the feel of Nick’s hand when she’d said good-bye to him in the car.

“What are you thinking about? You look silly.” Tygue had wandered into her room and was watching her from the doorway, his bowl of cereal in his hand, tilting at a precarious angle.

“Don’t walk around with your breakfast. And what do you mean, I look silly? That’s not a nice thing to say.” She sounded hurt, and he looked down into his bowl.

“I’m sorry.” He was still mad at her for leaving.

“Go put that in the sink and come back here.” He looked up at her and then vanished, clomping loudly along the floor. He was back in seconds with an expectant look on his freckled face. “Wait till you see what I brought you.” It was totally outrageous. She had found it in the children’s shop at the hotel, and she had had to have it. She had bought it at a scandalous price, but why not? He was the only son she had, and he was never going to have another outfit like this.
