CHAPTER 8
âHoney, you look thin.â
Olivia waved away the questing hands lifting the edge of her blouse up. She half-glared at her mom, straightening her rumpled shirt. âIâm not thin and itâs called working out.â
Just within a few weeks of time Gracieâs vigorous training sessions were beginning to take shape on Olivia. The pouch on her lower belly shrunk ever so slightly and her thighs were starting to take on a nice shape instead of flabbiness. Even her bicep muscles shifted whenever she flexed it experimentally.
Michelle raised an eyebrow at her skeptically before turning back around to the kitchen counter and scooped up a pile of chopped bacon bits to toss into a plastic bowl. Her parentâs kitchen was easily the tidiest and organized of all kitchens in the world, not one single appliance or tool out of place or without a place to go. Strong waves of apple cinnamon wafted through the house from the candle warmer on the corner of the counter and mixed in with the smell of cooked bacon.
âSince when has that started?â Michelle asked, casually. She brushed off bacon from her hands and then handed over a chefâs knife to Olivia, pointing to the jar of pickles.
Grabbing a cutting board from the bottom cupboard, Olivia opened the jar of pickles and began to dice them into bite sizes for the potato salad her mom was making for a weekend barbecue. She popped a piece of pickle into her mouth. âSince when has what started?â
âDonât be coy. Since when you have taken an interest in working out?â
âWhy does it matter to you?â
She finished chopping the pickles and scraped the cutting board clean of pickles into the bowl with the remaining ingredients. Olivia kept her eyes away from Michelleâs prying stare. It was the the type of stare that could see right through lies or facades, or, to put it simply, see right through bullshit.
âBecause Iâm your mother and I still care about your health. No matter what your age is, missy.â Michelle said.
Olivia rolled her eyes. âYeah, yeah. You just want to be nosy about whatâs going on in my life.â
Michelle dug the tip of her knife in the cutting board and raised a eyebrow in a silent warning. âWatch it, Olive. Iâll kick you out of this barbecue.â
âGood luck trying to convince dad.â Olivia said, sticking her tongue out.
They finished the potato salad while talking about Oliviaâs work with John and the Nora Roberts book Michelle just read. Outside on the latticed patio Daniel stood in front of the barbecuer, smothering a pair of baby back ribs with barbecue sauce.
âHi sweetheart.â He greeted, waving a hand cheerfully when they walked out with plates of food in hand. âAre you ready for some baby back ribs? How many do you want?â
Olivia set the potato salad on the tiled table and slid up into a chair. âJust two ribs for me. Iâm on a-what? What is that look?â
âTwo ribs?â Daniel echoed in disbelief. âJust two ribs? Michelle, what happened to our daughter? Do you have any ideas?â
âIâm right here.
