“So let me get this straight,” Dee said, dropping a folder full of information on Valen’s campaign that they’d never gotten around to discussing. It landed on Pia’s desk with a thud that seemed to accentuate the mood of their conversation.

“You were having a great time, best date you’ve had in years, and you decided you simply needed to bolt.”

“Yep,” Pia said, pretending to be too preoccupied with work to have this conversation. She hoped in vain that Darlene would get the hint and skedaddle.

“Plus you think he’s an all-around great guy and a major catch.”

“Uh-huh.”

“And he gave you the distinct impression that he’d love to get to know you a lot better, like up close and real personal, but you want me to screen all his calls. No phone, no e-mails, no communication of any kind.”

“Yep.”

“Chica, I do not get you. You ace the workshop, finally start acting like a girl again, get asked on a second date—and by some rich, successful guy, mind you—but you have no interest in him. Just tell me one more time—why?”

“It’s not so difficult to understand, Darlene. I accomplished my goal, which was to get pregnant, but that’s it. I’m not interested in hooking up with anyone, at least not now. And particularly not with a man who is running for the U.S. Senate on a Republican platform that touts a bunch of conservative viewpoints including strong ‘family values.’”

“So that’s it. You just give up?”

“Yep. Better to quit now while I can.”
