CHAPTER 24: MAGGIE –––––––– Maggie wasn’t positive what was bothering Terry, but she had a good guess. She should’ve refused to touch Dale. Terry didn’t share. He’d said that at least a hundred times, but at that moment she would’ve done whatever he’d asked her to do. Terry placed her gently on the bed, removing his jacket from around her shoulders and covering her with a blanket. “Do you want something to drink?” “I’m fine.” She sat up. They needed to talk. “I’ll get you some water.” He walked to the kitchen area and grabbed a bottle from the refrigerator. He came back into the room, his stride less confident than normal, and handed it to her. “Thank you.” She took a few gulps, thirstier than she’d thought and then leaned over, putting it on the nightstand. He hovered by the bed.
