Promise
One more hour. Just one more hour and I can go home for the day and
enjoy a cool sweet tea on my little patio in the back and savor the
breeze coming off the ocean at this cooler time of the evening.
I sigh and run my fingers through my hair, my eyes catching on my
reflection in one of our antique mirrors on display. I wince and turn away
immediately. I look like hell and there’s no other way to put it. My hair is
hanging down on my shoulders in a limp, tangled mess. My eyes have dark
circles under them and my skin is lackluster, pale and slightly sweaty from
the humidity that the low country is famous for in the summer.
I growl and pull a hair tie off my wrist and yank my hair back and out of
my face.
“Hey, Promise! How are you today? Anything new?” Petra giggles and I
roll my eyes at her.
“I know you think that you’re super funny, Petra but I don’t agree.”
She grins at me, her long blond curls gleaming in the store lights, her
blue eyes wide and happy. Petra always seems happy and sometimes I envy
her that but I have a feeling that it’s actually only the tip of the iceberg with
her. There’s something bubbling under the surface but she never lets
anybody get close enough to figure out what it is.
“I don’t do new stuff and you know that.” I smirk at her. “Everything’s
old in an antique store. Including me”
She giggles. “Yeah. I know. That’s why it’s so funny. Except for that
snarky comment about yourself. You know damn well you’re not old,
Promise. You’re just seasoned.”
I roll my eyes. “I’m thirty-three, Petra. I feel every single one of those
years.”
She growls under her breath and then rushes around to hug me. “Girl.
You need to stop being so nasty to yourself.”
I shrug my shoulders. “Not nasty if it’s true.”
Her eyes soften and she says, “Have you seen their son yet?”
My heart sinks and my eyes sting with tears. “No, the attorney said he’s
been notified but that he’s just winding up his own affairs. I swear I don’t
understand why he’s coming here. He hasn’t been back here since they
moved here.”
She shakes her head. “That you know of. Besides, although you liked
his parents you don’t know what their relationship was like. So don’t prejudge the poor guy.”
I shoot her a cynical look. “You know. For a girl who’s been dumped by
her boyfriend recently and has a horrible relationship with a certain man
because of your parents and his, I find it hard to believe that you should tell
me what to think.”
