Hank’s look was nothing short of smoldering.Smoldering.
“Careful, sugar. I’d hate for you to go too far.”
I opened and closed my mouth like a guppy out of water. My mind went fully blank on how to respond. Then that man gave me a wink and sauntered away. The absolute nerve of the man.
Two to zero, Hank.
Jasper
Okay, so I went to the feed store today for some food…
Gage
Texas doesn’t have grocery stores? I find that kinda surprising.
Rowan
Gage, shut it. Jasper, and?
Jasper
First, until you’ve been to an H-E-B, don’t diss Texas grocery stores.
Second, a dude was working there with a Pride pin on his name tag. I told you this place is a gay mecca.
Dad
Huh. Well, that’s good, I guess.
Jasper
I just thought it was cool.
Dad
You get the B&B opened yet?
Jasper
Not yet, but I’m working on it every day. I’ve got all the rooms cleaned, and I’m getting it together as quickly as I can.
Did you know Sissy had a brother?
Dad
Really? I don’t remember hearing that.
Jasper
Well, we didn’t know Sissy until the ancestry thing.
Dad
Right, right. I guess that makes sense.
Just make sure you’re not getting sidetracked. It’d be nice to see this one stick.
Jasper
