Shannon was very happy now. The food was excellent, and she wondered why she didn’t go to Kimmy Sim’s more often. Probably because it was out of the way and more expensive than the other places on the island.
Jeremiah didn’t say a whole lot, and that was okay with Shannon. Hercules moved to her feet and laid right on them, which made her feel comfortable.
“You want to take him home with you tonight?” Jeremiah asked.
“Oh, I don’t know,” she said. “I have two cats.”
“Two cats?” Jeremiah chuckled. “Hercules is practically perfect, so he’ll probably be fine.”
“Jean Luc is quite snooty,” Shannon said. “But Fuzzy is nice.”
“Jean Luc?” Jeremiah laughed fully now, and Shannon joined in.
“Yeah, well, my father loved Star Trek, and maybe I picked up a few names.”
