Mac:
How long will it be open?
Bishop:
Probably forever.
Mac:
I could’ve stayed in Kentbury then, but I would’ve missed connecting with my brother and learning more about myself.
Bishop:
Do you still need more time?
Mac:
I think so. Is that okay?
Bishop:
Of course it is.
Mac:
But you haven’t answered if you’re still in love with this woman who broke your heart.
Bishop:
I probably broke my own heart.
Mac:
Why would you say that?
Bishop:
It’s a long explanation I’d rather give you when you return.
Bishop:
You are coming back, right?
Mac:
My plane is about to take off, talk to you later.
ChapterSeventeen
Bishop
September
Everyone believes that fall rolls over around the end of September. That’s actually a myth. It’s when the leaves shift from vibrant green to burnt orange, crimson red, and buttery yellow as the month begins. The air grows steadily crisper in the weeks leading up to when those leaves carpet the ground.
Fall is one of my favorite seasons, right behind winter when I can ski daily. Though no matter the time of year, the animals need tending every morning. Maybe I should take Damian’s advice and hire some farmhands. That would free me to focus on the brewery full-time.
If only McKay were serious about working here. I wish things between us were different, that she realized how much I love her, and that we’re meant to be together. Knightly said I should go find McKay, tell her how I feel, and stop torturing myself. But I can’t. She has to decide what she wants first. If it’s not me, I’ll cope.
