My discovery of Augustaâs secret so unnerved me that it colored the rest of the evening. On the ride back to the parsonage, I was distracted and could barely drive. John Marcus had to repeat a question twice, asking me about Godwin and Richâs trip to Sarasota. When I felt his curious eyes on me, I pulled myself together. He was too sharp not to notice my state of mind. I needed time alone, a chance to mull over the shock of Augustaâs love for this man, to think back over the things sheâd said to me, bits and pieces of our talks. When I parked the car in the garage, John Marcus put a hand on my arm.
âDean? What is it?â
âW-what do you mean?â I looked his way but turned my head, quickly.
âDid I do something to upset you?â
âYou do something to upset meâoh! Oh, no, nothing like that,â I gasped.
He looked at me reproachfully, turning his head sideways. âCome on. I thought weâd become friends. You can trust me, Dean. Didnât I just prove that to you?â
âProve it to me?â I sounded like an idiot, but couldnât help it.
âYou were nervous about taking me to Godwinâs, afraid Iâd say something about their marriage. But I wouldnât have done that, you know.â
âOh! I know.â
âI want us to talk about all that, sometime this weekend. Weâll have to find some time alone, okay?â
âFat chance of that.â
âIâll make the time. I want to explain my viewpoint to you, Dean. There are people in a position to help Luke Shepherd and Godwin and Rich, believe it or not.â
I looked at him, and he returned my gaze calmly. No wonder Augusta loved this man! If I wasnât careful, Iâd fall in love with him myself.
