”“Wow, Momma. I love you more all the time. You just gave me an idea when you were talking about me taking charge and doing things my way. If I ca... come up with a way to get rid of a problem that we talked about just a minute ago, will you help me? We may need to get Mirra to help us, but I don’t want my sisters involved in this. They aren’t as tough and mean-minded as Mirra is. You and I, with Mirra’s help can make it happen and no one will ever know but the three of us.”“Do it, Josey. Just be. "You're sweet, Rudy. Listen, your heating is not too good. Can you drive down that road? There's a small restaurant where we can sit. My treat."Obediently I drove a few hundred yards until we stopped in front of a small restaurant. Inside Lillian found a secluded table in a corner where we sat down. A waitress appeared and Lillian ordered for the both of us. When the waitress had taken the order and was gone, Lillian faced me with a determined look on her face."Rudy, there is no easy way to say. Ellie cleared my confusion."It's a college in Lexington," she said. "She's still in town."I told her I appreciated what she was trying to do, but I really didn't want her to fix me up with any of her daughter's friends."I'm not playing Cupid," she told me. "I'm a terrible matchmaker and I don't really know you well enough to do that if I was a good one. I wanted to show you a picture of Alison so you could have a face to put with what I want to tell you."I joked and said I hadn't actually made. After we ate, I told Cindy not to worry about the dishes and lead her into my den, which had a comfortable, fluffy sectional couch, plenty of pillows and a nice audio/video system. I asked her if she would like to watch television or a movie, and she said she would love to watch a movie. I asked her what kind of things she liked, and she told me she would enjoy something romantic if that was OK with me. My library doesn't include a lot of romantic stuff, so I switched over to the on demand.
