”“This place must be crazy expensive, Steve! I’d be happy with pizza!”“Don’t worry, and just enjoy it. I make enough money from my busines... to do stuff like this every once in a while.”The service was over-the-top, just as I had expected, and the food was fantastic. Unfortunately, my dad didn’t know the owner, so we couldn’t have wine with our meal, but that was the only negative and it was a small one at that. But then, I suppressed a smirk, knowing that I’d be drinking the ‘blended wine from. Jonathon" That brought a giggle. When I was I kid, I hated be called Jonathon. Our third grade teacher had insisted on it, and she and I never saw eye to eye on anything. I sat, and signaled for a couple of menus.I felt lost for words for a few moments and then I realized there wasn't really any script. I just had to try and be myself, well a version of myself that didn't know Anna."That is a beautiful dress. You wear it very well." I tried, and hoped that wasn't too lecherous. But she did look. In mystate, I thought, this girl would make me feel better. I felt awful,because you were my friend, John, but I couldn't help my feelings. That'swhy I didn't come to the wedding. But then I thought maybe if I visitedand somehow got to know Heather, she might help me, somehow. I was notthinking clearly at all, and I can see that I haven't until right now. Ihave been terribly selfish and destructive, and I am so sorry I have hurtboth of you. I know there's no way I can repair this, so I will. Greg, feeling himself blush, nodded. ‘Yeah,’ he replied, ‘besides that.’ Abby set her cup down and looked thoughtful. ‘I…I don’t know,’ she said, ‘Is there anything you want to do?’ ‘Well,’ Greg said, ‘I suppose we could find something to do. If we can’t, there’s always bed, right?’ ‘Right,’ Abby said. Greg spooned eggs onto two plates, then carried them to the table. He sat down next to Abby and they ate, saying little. ‘How expensive do you think it would be to re-build my garage?’ Abby asked.
