“I’d love to show you sometime… when you’re up to a trip and a little walking, of course.”
“Oh, I would love that,” Cathy said.
“Awesome,” Duke said. “I am officially inviting you to dinner with the family, and just know that will also include Mercy and Lon, and whoever else Hope and Jack might invite.”
“I can’t think of anything better,” Cathy said. “I happily accept.”
Duke beamed. “That’s awesome!” he said, and before he thought, took her by the shoulders and was about to kiss her on the cheek when he caught himself, and stopped. Instead, he just gave her shoulders a quick squeeze. “I’ll talk to you soon, and don’t forget. Call if you need me,” and then let himself out.
Cathy sighed. There for a moment she thought he’d been going to kiss her. She wasn’t sure whether to be disappointed it hadn’t happened, or relieved things weren’t moving too fast.
Duke put all of his rain gear back on and made a run for his truck. Once inside, he glanced up at the house and saw her standing at the window.
He waved.
She smiled and waved back.
He didn’t remember one single minute of the drive home.
