“Is yer ma all right?”

“I think so, but I’ll find out the full story when I see Eva. I’ve got to go.”

“Of course,” Punky says. “Do ya want to take my truck?”

“No, it’s okay. I’ll catch a cab. If I turn up in your truck, Eva will ask questions, and I don’t have the energy to explain it to her right now.”

Punky nods, understanding that I mean she’ll ask where Rory is.

This conversation will have to be put on hold for now as I have yet another drama to deal with.

“Be careful,” he says with a sigh.

“I always am. You too. Are you seeing Brody today?” I know Punky, and he will want to strike as soon as possible.

He nods. “Aye. It’s time to set the rules.”

“Rules Brody will break.”

“Not if I break him first,” he counters quickly, and I know that he will.

I don’t know what to say, so I smile briefly before turning my back on him and walking away, hoping it’s for the last time. But I know better. Things with Punky and I have only just begun.
