Bo rubbed her forehead and kept her head low. Pity didn’t solve anything and she detested it. Besides, she collected enough witnesses to her nearly yearlong pity party and what good would it do to add Kenzi to the list? Leaning on her crutch, she hopped in a tight semi-circle and rushed to leave before she broke down completely. The least she could do was save the waterworks for the privacy of her own room.
Bo had almost made it out of the kitchen when Kenzi’s soft voice broke the impasse. ”Sucks, doesn’t it…”
Bo stopped in the doorway.
”…to have your heart cut out of you. I want to forgive you, I really want to Bo.”
Bo turned back toward the kitchen, her nose red and her eyes glazed over with tears she fought to hold back.
Kenzi shook her head and reached for a small stack of plates, placing them on the counter. ”Start there,” she pointed, ”set the table.”
Bo nodded, the corners of her mouth pulling into a smile. She shuffled toward Kenzi choosing not to say another word. She would do any task, small or great, if it meant one open door yielding onto another onto another, until Bo won Kenzi’s trust back. In an instant, she felt something akin to luck rush through her veins.
”Oh, and Bo. Up until a few hours ago, Lauren was the happiest I’ve ever seen her. Ever. She’s had enough harm done to her to last a lifetime.”
”I get it Kenzi.”
”Do you? Really? She’s special and not in that ooey-gooey way from an 80’s RomCom. Lauren’s the real deal. I can see why you fell in love with her, but I’ll never understand how you let her go.” She collected her thoughts and gripped the cleaver anew. ”So help me, if you hurt her again even I won’t be able to forgive that,” she said while driving the cleaver into the chopping block, separating the head from the rest of the fish.
Bo took a step back and swallowed hard. So much for feeling lucky.
”Go.” Kenzi waved her off. ”We eat at six o’clock. And Lauren hates tardiness.”
Not even five minutes into their first dinner together and the extreme politeness was deafening.
