Chapter 3

Moments later, Abram pushed through the glass door at the front of the diner and stepped into the parking lot. He had yet to glance at Sofia again. His only thought was getting her safely out of the diner and away from her fucked-up boss.

Sofia wrenched her hand free and stomped away from Abram without glancing back.

“Hey. Where are you going?” He jogged to catch up with her.

She yanked her purse up on her shoulder and ignored him, hugging the strap to her front while she walked across the parking lot. Before he knew it, she was on the sidewalk trudging down the street. Where was her car?

“Sofia?” He raced to catch up and match her incredible pace. “Wait.”

She ignored him again.

Finally he grabbed her arm. “Stop. Look at me.”

She twisted to face him, furry in her eyes. “Who the fuck do you think you are? Do you think you helped me out in there?”

“Yes.” Of course.

She laughed sardonically. “Well, you would be wrong. I needed that job.”

“Your boss is a dickwad.”

“That may be, but now I don’t have an income. And I needed the money.”

“You couldn’t possibly need the money that badly. Get another job. Why are you working in a diner anyway? The last time we were together you were going to college and working at the library. Did you not finish?”

She cocked one hip out to the side and rolled her eyes. “That’s right. Piece it together, asshole. Life isn’t perfect. It sucks. Sometimes it really sucks. And after your interference in there, it now sucks even worse. So if you don’t mind, get out of my face and go back to wherever you came from. I have a colossal pile of shit to figure out, and I don’t have time for you. Ever. Don’t come near me again.” She jerked her arm out of his grasp and stomped farther down the sidewalk.

Abram took a deep breath. He was shocked. Knocked off his feet shocked.

With another short jog, he caught up with her again. “Look, I have a car. Let me at least drop you off somewhere. You can’t just walk down the street. It’s getting late. It’s not safe.”

It was late November. Already dark out. And chilly. He watched as Sofia shivered and wrapped her arms around her middle. She wore nothing but the ugliest yellow polyester dress he’d ever seen. It barely covered her butt and it dipped low enough in front to accentuate her cleavage. It bordered on obscene and did nothing to make her look half as sexy as he knew she did underneath the ensemble.

She chuckled again with even less humor. “And you care why?”

“I’m not an asshole.” He flinched as soon as the words left his mouth. As far as she was concerned, he probably was an asshole.

“Really? Based on what evidence? The part where you spent hours befriending me in the library, telling me secrets about your life I probably wasn’t supposed to know, and then you disappeared without a trace? Because that was a total dick move.
