Preview Chapter 3 - Goble and Verne

I leave Goble’s apartment building right after I was blatantly rejected. I think I’d just hit the road and maybe get Mom and Dad some really good midnight snacks. It’s not all the time we eat ice cream. Ray will be coming over for a Chinese dinner.

While I wait for a cab just outside Goble’s apartment building, a black car pulls in at the curb. The door window slides down and a hazy picture of man is trying to stretch his neck toward the window.

“Angel?”

It was not until the third time that he called my name that I realized it was Colin Verne.

“Colin?!”

“Are you going to Max’s?”

“No. I’m actually going home now.”

“I’d give you a ride then.” With that beam, I know he’d be more than happy to hear me say ‘yes’.

“It’s not really necessary, Colin.”

“I insist, Angel.” He’s already gone out of his car and opened the door for me. “We have a lot of catching up to do."

I notice his hair to be a little darker now—dark blonde, I guess. And he wears stylish clothes compared to before.
