His hands, smoothing the thin magazine sheets, stilled, and he asked the question he’d been wanting to know the answer to since he first heard she was back in town. “Are you planning to stick around for a while?”
The smile vanished. “I’m not sure. I’m still trying to figure all that out. I better go. Tell your pop I said hi.”
He followed her to her car. “You’re welcome to stay and tell him yourself. I teach a class at the college, so I’ve got to get going or I’d go in with you.”
When she opened the door, he reached for her hand. She stared at it. “It really is good to see you again, Wynn.”
She looked down where their two hands joined and didn’t move for a long second. She swallowed hard. “I have to go.”
“Take care.” He watched as she drove away, his eyes following her little blue car until it disappeared around a curve.
He didn’t wonder that he was still as fascinated by her as he had been as a teenager, just accepted it as a fact. That was his nature. But he did wonder what brought her back to Red Hill Springs and what it was that made her eyes look so sad.
