“Rhys.”
The sound of Savannah’s voice brought my attention back to her. “Yes?”
Our eyes met. “If you need to talk about anything, I’m here. Whatever you say will stay between us. I don’t want to overstep myself with you, but I’m concerned.”
She meant every word that she said and I found that comforting. But I wouldn’t do that. I’d learned long ago not to trust anyone with my problems. It was much safer for both of us.
“Thank you for the offer but I’m fine,” I reassured her.
The open expression on her face slowly shut down and I could practically see the defensive wall she put up between us. “Okay then. Do you have any more questions about the tarot or the three cards?”
I regretted my words as soon as I heard the cool tone of her voice and the compassion that she offered me was retracted. I found myself saying something without thinking much about it. Since my conversation with Ava a few minutes before, I’d been considering her suggestion of purchasing a car to help me blend in. Then I made a split second decision. I wanted to spend more time with Savannah. “No, but there is one thing you can help me with.”
Surprise radiated from her. “Of course.”
“Do you know where I could buy a car?”
