Chapter 8

Sonya looked in the full-length mirror and held up a purple-and-black-leopard-spotted bra and panty set over her gray yoga pants and white tank top. She compared it with one that was made of the most delicate cream-colored French lace she’d ever seen.

She bit her lip, truly conflicted. To really get a feel for the look, she’d have to strip down to her skivvies, but she hated dressing rooms.

The boutique lingerie shop was the newest addition to downtown Bay Point’s growing cadre of small business retailers, and was crowded with shoppers. Sonya had stopped in to get something special for an upcoming date she had with Trent. He wouldn’t tell her where they were going, other than to wear something sexy.

After a few minutes of indecision, she shrugged and grinned at her reflection. “Guess I’ll just have to purchase both!” she said aloud.

Sonya heard a raucous “Go for it, honey!” from a female voice nearby. She turned around and it was Violet, the woman from the home repair class.

“Hey, girl, where have you been?” Violet squealed, causing a few heads to turn around. She set down two shopping bags on the polished wood floor. “I must have been in the line to pay when you walked in or else I would have seen you.”

The two women hugged tight, like they were fierce friends, and Sonya felt a twinge of guilt for not keeping in contact. The last time she’d seen Violet was at Sal’s Hardware store.

After releasing one other, Violet teased, “Or maybe should I ask, who have you been with?”

Sonya swung the two sets of lingerie in the crook of her index finger. “I’ve been a little busy.”

Violet raised a brow and laughed. “I’ll bet, and about to get busier, I imagine.”

Sonya merely smiled, neither confirming nor denying that she was in a relationship. She wasn’t even sure that Trent wanted anyone to know. Maybe he had his own reasons for staying mum, and that was fine with her. For now.

Violet folded her arms. “So are you going to tell me who the lucky man is?”

She pressed her lips together and shook her head.

“I can’t, Violet. I’m sorry.”

Violet shrugged, and gave her a knowing smile.

“I think I know who it is. You haven’t been in class lately, and I’ve had him all to myself.”

Sonya felt her face get hot. Although news would break at some point that she and Trent were dating, she wasn’t going to be the one to spill the information and spoil the secrecy.

Violet winked. “And I’m not talking about the power saw.”

Sonya burst out laughing. She’d forgotten how humorous Violet could be. “I certainly hope not, Violet. I wouldn’t want you to get hurt.”

“And I don’t want you to get hurt,” Violet added in a serious tone. She picked up her shopping bags, looked around at the crowd and edged closer.

“Can I talk to you outside?”

“Sure, just let me pay for these purchases.”

A few minutes later, Sonya joined her and they walked to the town square, where an old-fashioned carousel was the main attraction.
