“You’re really leaving?”
I look away, unable to bare the pain in the eyes of the man
who’s been my whole world since I was a young girl. Grabbing a shirt, I
fold it and drop it on the growing pile of clothes in my suitcase. “I’ll only
be in Murfreesboro for a couple of months, Trent,” I say, still not able to
meet his eyes. “It’ll be over before you know it.”
“That’s highly doubtful,” he mutters, roughly raking his hands through
his hair as he paces from one end of the room to the other. He spins around
and faces me, his expression full of torment “Why does it have to be you?”
I place another shirt on top of the pile. “Because she needs help. Her
mom was just released from the hospital and Ashlyn needs someone to be
with her while she’s at work. You already know all of this.”
Trent grips the back of his neck and stares at the floor. I move to the
closet and pull clothes from their hangers. He follows me and stands in the
doorway.
“Why can’t she hire a local caretaker?”
“She and Dillon can’t afford to hire someone. She was there for me in
college when I was struggling leaving home.” I turn and face him. “This is
the least I can do for her after everything she’s done for me.”
Guilt burns like acid in my stomach at the lie.
Stuffing his hands into his pockets, Trent frowns. I have to force myself
to keep still, not wanting to give him any reason to think I’m lying.
“What about your job?”
“I’ve talked to Stan, and he’s agreed to give me the time off.”
Stan is one of two family doctors here in Jaded Hollow. I’ve worked as
a nurse’s assistant for him since I earned my degree seven years ago. I hated
to leave him on such short notice, but thankfully, despite the very small size
of Jaded Hollow, there is another nurse besides myself who works there.
Wendy agreed to take on my responsibilities while I’m gone.
“I don’t like it.” He shakes his head. “This doesn’t feel right.” His eyes
move beyond me to the wall before coming back. “Is there—” He cuts
himself off. “Is there something else going on? Is there… another man?”
My eyes pop open wide and my stomach clenches. Dropping the clothes
at my feet, I walk over to him, place my hands on his abdomen, and look
up, letting him see the love I feel for him with my eyes.
“How can you ask me that, Trent?” Tears cloud my vision. “I would
never do anything like that to you. I love you with every piece of my heart.
I have since I was a little girl.”
Blowing out a breath, he pulls his hands from his pockets and wraps his
arms around my waist, tugging me closer to him.
