I stretched my arms out to cover my entire doorway, all pretenses of calm lost. If Mrs. Mets walked in there and saw Spencer, she'd lose her mind. She'd refuse to give me back a cent of my security deposit. Worse, she'd make me take Spencer to my new place.
Pierce hadn't required a deposit when I moved into Katy's old place, and that was his problem, not mine.
Mrs. Mets eyed me with pursed lips and narrowed eyes, but then finally she stepped back and I sucked in a breath of fresh air. "Fine, Vonnie. We can wait, but if you don't get that key in on time, I'm going to charge you an extra month of rent."
"I'm just waiting for a few things and then it will be in your beautiful hands." I sniffled but then noticed nothing was there to sniffle. Huh, my nose had cleared up.
Interesting.
