If we go anywhere, we’ll wear some of my sweats until we can get some new clothes that fit. If Kasey was planning to stay with you, tell her to come...to my house, too. I live at 1010 Millbranch Street, and I would love to have both of you. Maybe we could invite Lucien over too, while you and Kasey are staying with me.”I jogged into our yard just before sundown and the first thing I noticed - was the new, white Dodge Rebel pickup parked over to the side, and the Cadillac CTS parked in front of. She knew that. She was petite, maybe 5”2, really trim, a huge mess of Dolly Parton style blonde hair and had a saucy attitude. At least she had when she left our house.
