- About the Author
Troy shrugged. A family friend had come into the livery to say he thought he had seen Bobbie in front of the mercantile. Troy had been unable to concentrate after that so he took off to find out if it had been her. There had been no sign of her in the shipping office and Troy had nearly run home in a state of panic to find her. She had been out of their life for so long and it had scared him to think that something could happen to her when they had just gotten her back.
Troy never answered her, but for the moment Bobbie didnt seem to notice his quiet behavior.
I need to get back to work.
Ill go with you, Jeff said, and trailed silently after her. Troys gaze had warmed slightly, and Jeff, not inclined to take things personally, figured Troy had been worried about his sister.
The walk back to the shipping office was equally as quiet as the exit from the house. Wasting no time once she was back inside, Bobbie went straight to Bills office. She entered when he called come in and Jeff walked into the storage room to find Gil.
Im sorry, Mr. Taylor, I really am. It never occurred to me that you didnt know. I do have an extra pair of glasses that Ill bring in so I wont be completely out of commission if this happens again.
Bill listened in patient silence. She had apologized at least six times, and even though he had assured her that everything was fine, he could see that this had really shaken her up. She wasnt anywhere near this upset when she left, and Bill couldnt help but wonder what had happened while she had been gone with Jeff.
They continued to talk, and in time Bill could see that he was finally getting through to her, making her understand he wasnt at all upset and that she still had the job for as long as she needed.
But as they finished, Bill wondered if he should question Jeff. Maybe he could shed some light on why this very efficient young woman had been totally rattled over her glasses breaking.
I should have explained to you, Gil said quietly.
I should have seen with my own eyes that she needed help. Jeff was still reprimanding himself as he and Gilbert talked in the back room.
Well, Im glad you spotted her at the mercantile when you did and Rigg was able to grab her. Dont look so down, Jeff. You said you apologized.
I know. But Jeff didnt look the least bit consoled. He left the storeroom to help two customers, and by the time Bobbie came out of Bills office, he had formulated a plan.
Bobbie, Jeff approached her immediately. I was wondering if youd let me take you to lunch today?
