CHAPTER FOURTEEN

The picture in his mind remained.

With the child in bed, asleep, Thane finally took time to close his eyes. His recliner kicked back, Pachelbel’s Canon on the music system and Matty by his side, he let the scene return in full color. Blythe sitting on the couch with Amie, blankie and all, on her lap, held close. Would that he could come home to that scene every day.

She cares for me, I know she does. You can’t have attraction as strong as we have without caring. At least I can’t and I don’t think she can, either. But—there always had to be a but. But she continually shied away from talk of children. But she had cared for Amie all afternoon and the house was all of a piece when he got home.

However, that was anger pure and simple that he saw on her face as she ran out the door. She’d said she had a meeting at five. He’d tried his best to get back, but when you are stuck in the middle of the Bay Bridge with a major accident ahead, there is nothing you can do but wait. And want to kill your cell phone that, for some inexplicable reason known only to cell phones, died. He almost got out of his car to ask someone else to call her for him. He should have. Or, plan B, he could have left her the car seat, not that taking Amie to a business meeting would have worked either, but she would have had more options.

He rested his glass of milk on his chest and let the music flow over him. Getting sleepier by the moment, he drained the glass and set it on the floor. At least he’d been successful at Cymex. He glanced at the clock. Eight-thirty. Time to start trying to reach Blythe. To explain what all had happened—and find out if she made it to her appointment.
