Her throat was packed tightly with uncertainty. “I don’t know. He didn’t look very accepting when he stomped out of here.”

“He probably wouldn’t have taken the news so hard if he had reason to doubt you,” Carrie pointed out. “He believed what you said about his children because he knows he can trust you.”

“Trusting in my ability doesn't mean he's not just using me, though,” Kelly countered, stubbornly determined to see the negative side. Hugh didn’t want her, and she wasn’t going to pretend to be someone she wasn’t for the sake of some stranger that her daughter thought would be a good match.

She’d just be alone with Waldo and Wenda forever, and that would have to be fine.

“He did have you over for dinner,” Carrie reminded her. “I don’t think that had anything to do with Daniel. And he didn’t have to sleep with you to get you to raise some spirits. Seems to me like he’s interested in more than just your mind, hun.”

Kelly wasn’t convinced. “I don’t know. I just need to stop thinking about it for a while.”

“There’s nothing wrong with giving yourself a mental break. Just…” She broke off, hesitating.

“What is it?” Kelly had known Carrie to speak her mind without fail. She might take a moment to put together what she was about to say, but she was always direct. For her to stop midsentence like that was unusual.

“I just want to say that Hugh is fairly open-minded. A lot of people around here are. They’re more accepting and understanding than you might think, especially for such a small town. I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”

It sounded like there was more to that story, but Kelly wasn’t sure she was up for it at the moment.

“I’ll keep that in mind, but we’ll have to see what happens. The one thing I know is that I’m not calling him. If he decides he wants to see me, it’ll be on him.”

“I understand. Hey, you should come see me again this weekend. I can’t leave to come up to your place because I’ve got guests, but we should hang out. It might make you feel better.”

It would also give her all the excuses she needed not to go out with Louis that weekend. “I’ll be there.”
