Chapter 11

ABBY, Ruth and Barb looked on from the porch steps as Andrew and Rob loaded up the Jeep with their things from the house, and from Abby’s SUV beside it. Rob set aside John and Trina’s things, and took them inside. Andrew was able to get in touch with Trina while they waited for Abby’s SUV. His new plan was that after he dropped the four of them to the car rental in Reno, he would return here to drop their belongings to Trina at the hospital.

Andrew had double-checked; there was going to be clear skies and mild weather for the rest of the day. It meant they were left with enough time to leave Reno before two in the afternoon. With that departure time, they would get into San Francisco by seven at night, if they made one short stop on the way.

Neither Andrew nor Rob would let her or the other ladies help; both Andrew and Rob coddled her like her injury had still left her incapacitated. When they were finished, Andrew locked up the house. Rob, Ruth and Barb piled into his vehicle. Abby wasn’t sure why she took so long to get into the car. She hung back on the porch and looked at the house, trying to etch it into her brain.

Andrew may have read her mind—again. “Does your phone still have enough charge?” He asked as he came to stand beside her.

“Yes. I had it turned off since that night. I haven’t used it. Why?”

“I can take a photo of you right here, with the house behind you, if you want.”

“How did you know?”

“Wild guess. Give it to me. Can I take some of you with my phone as well?”

“Of course.”

She smiled and pulled the phone from her purse. She turned it on and opened the camera app before passing it to him.

“Wait,” she said, turning to her right and pulling her hair to one side. “Get me on my good side.”

“Why is that your good side?”

“I don’t know. I like photos taken from this angle.”

He took a few shots with her phone, and then a few with his own.

“I’d like one of you,” she said as he passed her phone back to her.

“Okay.” He stood on the same step, his broad shoulders pushed back, chin up, and he smiled with his eyes when she took a shot of him.

“Thanks Andrew,” she said softly, putting her phone away. “Now I have more than a mental picture to remember you by. And the house that saved us from the storm.”

“Same here. I’d get one of us together, but your friends are waiting. Let’s get going.”

Rob had already sat in back, with Ruth in the middle, and Barb behind the front passenger seat. There was no discussion that Abby would ride shotgun. She guessed they knew more about what was growing between her and Andrew—not that she cared to hide it anymore.

The drive to Reno was quiet. Probably too quiet. Everyone seemed trapped in their respective thoughts.
