Burns, when was the last time your family had a week away in the summer for a proper holiday?”“Good Lord, let me think, I would guess it would be ...our years ago.” She replied.That was the time the farming industry started to go into decline, so money had been tighter after that.“Are you planning on a vacation this year?”“We had talked about it. Well Bernie and I have, we were wondering if we could afford to get some people in to look after the farm for a week, so we could have a week away. Lyn looked at me for a moment and I shrugged. "Want to leave?" She said simply. Just as simply, I nodded.With that I followed her out to the parking lot and we got into her car. When I got in, I slid across the seat to sit next to Lyn. Lyn sat at the wheel without starting the car for a bit. "I've been afraid all day you weren't going to come."I ran my fingers along the sleeve of her jump suit. The fabric felt nice and I said so. "I really like you, Lyn. I liked being with you last night. And I. Let's just getthis over with." I said in my best girl voice."Yo, that's a perfect girl voice man! By the way, will you be able todrive in thouse shoes?" I don't know, I'll try. They're not THAT complicated to walk in." Sure.. Ok, Claire, seriously. Let's go." Ok, I'm going. Oh and Dani, here's a small purse. There's some make upand other stuff you might need. oH, also, here's your money." She handedme the purse and the envelope. I put the envelope in the purse for now.Claire and tom left me. I just went ahead and kept filling my cup. Nobody seemed to mind. Before the hour was up I had noticed this guy also hanging around the front desk. He had said he was waiting for his laundry. He had been at the hotel a while (hence having to do laundry) and had struck up a friendship with the target of my flirting. I was sure I would not get anywhere with the girl, but it was fun to flirt. During phone calls and interruptions the front desk girl had, this guy and I had talked. I was sure he was.
