TWO DAYS LATER, PHIL went over to Rebecca’s vacation house at just after noon.

He usually took a few hours off in the middle of the day since he went in so early and stayed so late, and there was no reason not to spend those hours with Rebecca.

They only had five days left.

He was trying not to think about it.

He was trying not to think of anything except having a good time with Rebecca while he could.

When he got to her house, the door was open, so he knocked on the door and then opened it. “Hey, Rebecca.”

“Come on in!” she called.

He found her in the kitchen, setting out dishes on the kitchen bar. She was smiling as if she were having a very good time.

“What’s all this?” he asked, coming over to peer at what she’d set out.

“This is lunch. I’ve been making stuff this morning. Chicken salad. Fruit salad. Plus leftover pasta salad. In summary, all kinds of salad except green salad, so hopefully you’ll like it.”

“Looks great.” He was hungry, and he wasted no time in filling up the plate she handed him.

They ate out on the patio, and she asked him about his morning and told him about taking a swim and then walking to the grocery store and having fun with food all morning.

She’d obviously had a good day so far, and her face was glowing with pleasure.

She’d always been like that when she got to cook, and he wondered if she’d had the chance at home lately.

From what she’d said, it sounded like she hadn’t.

He finished his plate and then filled up another, and eventually she was giggling at the amount he’d consumed.

He didn’t mind. He was full and relaxed and didn’t have to go back to work anytime soon.

“Were you going to swim this afternoon?” he asked. “I brought my suit just in case.”

She was wearing a bikini beneath her tank top. He could see the straps and was very interested in what it would look like when she took her tank off.

“I don’t know. I’m feeling kind of lazy now after eating so much. Maybe I’ll get in the hot tub. Did you want to swim?”

“I’ll do whatever you do.” The hot tub sounded good to him. He was overly full.

So they got into their suits, and as he was stepping into the hot, churning water, Rebecca asked, “Do you want a glass of wine?” She was pouring one for herself from the bottle they’d opened last night.

He hesitated because he wasn’t sure how long he’d be able to stay awake if he drank wine on top of the lunch he’d just eaten. He did have to go back to work eventually.

But she was smiling at him, and the wine was white, light, and fruity, so he ended up saying yes.

So they soaked in the hot tub and drank wine and stared out at the waves on the quiet beach. People occasionally walked by, but no one was camped out in front of them or obstructing their view.
