“Oh, honey.” She smirks. “Of course, you are.”
I breathe a laugh. “Still…”
Caleb looks at me with sympathetic eyes. “I’ve known Fox for a long time — not as long as you have — but if there’s one thing I can tell you about him with absolute certainty… it’s that he’s stupid.”
“Stupid?”
“So stupid.”She cracks a grin. “I mean, the guy can shoot the cherry off a cigarette from across a football field, but he can’t see what’s right in front of him?”
“Sounds about right.”
“Dani, I can ramble all day long about how stupid men are — and, believe me, I have — but the hard truth is… we’re not any better. Especially if we don’t do anything about it.”
“I would if I could, but…”
I glance out the windows behind me. The black car sits in the lot with the engine running, just waiting to take me back into a world of broken dreams.
What if I didn’t go back? What if I chose a different life?
What if I chose Fox, the way he chose me?
What if? What if?
I turn back to Caleb. “Is there a back exit out of this place?” I ask.
Caleb grins.
