Chapter Ten

Jenna’s eyes were still closed when she heard her Aunt Gertie’s voice across the table.

“Cornell University Law School, you say?” Gert called out to Mia. Jenna opened her eyes to see Gert watching her with interest. “That must be Arthur’s sweatshirt.”

Mia trudged back into the room, a Tide stain stick clutched in one hand and an expression that was more curious than suspicious. Jenna willed herself to breathe.

“Who’s Arthur?” Mia asked as she dropped back into her chair and popped the top off the stain remover.

“Arthur is my new gentleman friend. He stayed over one night last week, so he must have left that behind.”

“He graduated from Cornell?”

“Why yes, I believe he did. Practiced family law for quite a few years down in the Bay Area before he retired. He dabbles in a bit of elder law now and then over at the Senior Center. Another biscuit, dear?”

Jenna blinked and reached out to take the wooden bowl her aunt had nudged toward her. When Gert caught her eye, she gave a wink so faint, Jenna was sure she’d imagined it.

She knew she should feel relieved, but the guilt pressed heavily into her chest. She split open a biscuit and reached for her orange juice.

What Mia doesn’t know won’t hurt her, she told herself.

It just might, her conscience argued back.

Jenna gulped down the last of her juice, her stomach roiling. She felt like the worst friend on the face of the planet. She probably was.

Beside her, Mia chattered on.

“I’m glad you’re seeing someone, Aunt Gertie,” Mia said as she finished rubbing the stain stick over her shirt and recapped the pen. “Love is a wonderful thing at any age.”

“Pish, who said anything about love?” Gert grinned and pushed the gravy toward Jenna. “I’m just after the sex.”
