Chapter 8
Bristol
“How’s everything going out there, honey? Are you making sure your brother is settled in?” my mother asked.
It was late Monday morning and I was rushing to get home so I could change before going to Jack’s house. My first two appointments went by quickly, though I found myself distracted by thoughts of Jack. In just another hour, I was going to be alone with him inside his house. The thought of that thrilled me. I had no clue if he was married, but I hadn’t seen a ring on his finger. Not that it mattered to people nowadays, but I refused to think of a man who was married.
“Bristol, you there?”
“Yes, I’m here,” I laughed. “I’m trying to get ready for my next appointment. Your precious boy is okay. He’s settled into his apartment and he’s looking for houses.”
