Kathy raced back to her apartment. Kevin must’ve gotten the promotion he’d been working so hard for. It was the only thing that came to mind when he mentioned celebrating. She was so happy for him. That he wanted to celebrate with her made it extra special. This was the kind of thing that the old Kevin would’ve wanted to go to a bar to celebrate with every person he knew.
That he chose a quiet night alone with her said a lot.
At home, she cleared her coffee table in the living room so they could be comfortable while they ate and then she checked her fridge. Kevin was a beer drinker, but she didn’t normally keep much on hand. She checked the clock. There wouldn’t be time to run to the store to grab some for him. Maybe she could run out while they waited for the pizza after he got here.
