Anna honestly told him all of this and when she’d finished looked at him with the saddest eyes. “You know what’s funny, Sam? I could care less about the money. All I ever wanted from Bob was a happy marriage and we were fine the first year. Then Papa died and I found out about Bob’s cheating on me. I guess it went on from day one and I never saw it. I just wanted the type of marriage my grandparents share. You know, trusting and faithful.”

Sam saw tears well in her eyes and was surprised at the amount of sympathy he felt for her heartbreak. He also knew about how her father deserted her and her mom in Spokane, Washington when Anna was a kid. The mother had next to nothing moneywise, but the grandparents stepped in and helped out. Anna and her mom lived with them for a few years and, all-in-all, it was probably a better situation than with her father.

Anna opened up about her past that one night at dinner. A lot of it Sam already knew, but he let her talk and felt glad to hear her side. He walked her back to the apartment she rented. Before they got to the place, she stopped on the sidewalk and looked at him. “You know, you’re a nice guy, but I wish we’d met under different circumstances.”

It’d been a long time since anyone said he was nice and he found himself leaning over to kiss her. The fact that she’d responded to him and they’d spent the rest of the night together, was enough to make his heart want her with him on a permanent basis.

When he woke up the next morning, she’d gone. It tore that want in his heart to pieces and he determined, then and there, to find her again, but not for Trace Sheets.

Sam returned to Boise and was ready to tell Trace to stuff it when the husband put an envelope into his hands. Trace said all he needed was Anna’s signature and he never wanted to see her again. Since the envelope wasn’t sealed Sam took out the papers and found a no-fault, in absentia divorce decree. From the looks of things, Trace didn’t want to wait thirty some odd years for the money to materialize.

This last time, Anna made it harder to find her, but a couple of weeks ago, his computer geek connection told him that she’d made a deposit to her account. She didn’t know that Sam knew all about her bank account under the pseudo name.

He watched her move behind the bar. She wore her hair up in a ponytail and it bounced whenever she shifted. He didn’t remember it being so long, but he hadn’t caught up with her for the last six months. The color was golden-brown and shone beautifully in the subdued lights of Cob’s Bar and Grill.

Every now and then when it quieted down at the bar, she’d meet that same guy out on the dance floor.
