Maybe she should consider asking for her job in San Antonio back If Logan and Heather were to get together, Sah that day in and day out Although Sas she had for hied and painful

Before she went in search of food, she changed out of her norinkled slacks and silk shirt They’d both have to go to the dry cleaners now Feeling minimally better in her fleece pajama shorts and tank top, she went in search of food

Her cell phone caught her attention as she passed the bar on her way to the kitchen She knew she should check to ht at work, but she didn’t have the energy to do it Everything would be there for her in the roan as she thought about having to go into the office

Could she take soh time over the years Possibly a trip to San Antonio to see her parents

Oh, as she kidding? She couldn’t afford to take any ti to stay with her parents wouldn’t be a vacation anyway Her mother would just smother her with affection and constantly ask her if she was ok

Re she had a critical project in the works, deadlines looed off the idea No matter how hard this would be she couldn’t take any ti to be hell

Logan entered Sa several ti the doorknob had been a last ditch atte him when the knob turned, and the door opened He’d seen her lock the door every time he’d been allowed in, so he was a little shocked

The only light in the darkened apart froht cast a shadow in the short hallway, luring hi whether he should announce his presence or giving hian opted for the latter Making as little noise as possible so as not to startle her, he crept the short distance to her bedroom

What he sahen he approached her doorway tore at his heart, threatening to wrench it fro across her eyes, silent, devastating sobs heaving her chest She hispering soo away, please”

The ache in his chest felttwisted back and forth
