Chapter Twelve

It was a good conversation, Anne thought as she started her drive to Bernalillo. It had lowered her anxiety level but raised more questions than it answered. She felt a thrill in her chest recalling the first salvo of physical intimacy. Regardless of how brief, it acted like a balm to the raw area within her psyche, an area unidentifiable, until now.

Anne wanted to feel loved and desired again. She wanted someone to touch her face, stroke her skin. Of course, eventually sometime, she didn’t much care when because the waiting was delicious, she wanted to make wild, crazy, endless love like a hormonal adolescent. Zeke Cabot, FBI agent extraordinaire, might just be the person to lead her down that special road to glory. “That woman can kiss like no one I have ever met in my life.”

The morning went quickly and she worked swiftly and with great joy. Her patients commented on her sunny disposition. One even said, “You seem even happier than usual, Mrs. Reynolds.” Actually, she was happy, curious, nervous, and exhilarated.

Anne stopped in Rio Rancho for coffee and bagel. As she walked down the sidewalk in the strip mall, she thought about calling Zeke but decided instead to buy a silly greeting card. There is no point in seeming over eager, even though I obviously propositioned her.

She wanted to buy the expensive mushy card, but felt it might be premature. They hadn’t even had a date yet. She found a cute card with two little old ladies on the front and a silly line and scribbled a note on the inside saying, “I hope someday we’ll be as cute as these two old broads, Annie.” She stuck the card into the bag with a four-piece Whitman sampler box, and then threw it in her purse.

There were still two patients to see in Rio Rancho before she headed out to the Jemez Pueblo. As she reached Highway 536, her cell phone rang. “This is Anne.”

“Well hi, Anne, this is Zeke. Is this a good time to talk?”

Anne’s mouth went dry as every drop of saliva evaporated instantly at the sound. “I’m driving to Jemez, and thinking about a lovely evening I enjoyed with a most interesting individual.”

“Who might that be and what were you doing?”

“I’m afraid I can’t say. It would be considered kiss and tell, and I’m not that kind of girl.”

“Gosh, I feel so disappointed.”

“I’m afraid you’ll just have to get over it.”

They both laughed then Zeke asked, “What time do you think you’ll be finished with work?”

“I’m not sure. Sometime between four and five, why?”

“Oh, I thought if it wasn’t too late we might be able to get together. Why don’t you call me on my cell as soon as you leave your last visit?”

“Okay, sounds like a plan. Then I’ll see you later?”

“You can count on it. By the way, what are you wearing?”

Anne giggled. “Are you serious?”

“Yes.”

“Well…jeans, a teal shirt, and a blue blazer. Is that what you wanted to know?”

“Yes. Now I can think about you for the rest of the day and visualize your every movement.
