Chapter 148
- By lunch and its aftermath, that answer to that question clearly was a resounding yes. Calling it "lunch" was a bit of a stretch. Jess and I picked up Kat before meeting Rita at a trendy restaurant with a bustling, popular patio. Rita, intentionally, wore the same style dress as Kat, only in white. They sat next to one another and looked stunning, drawing leers and yearning gazes from the other customers. We ordered Champagne, oysters, and a couple appetizers, but lunch really was about the girls parading to the restroom at regular intervals to powder their noses. It was a raucous celebration of Kat's retirement. But it also served as merely a bridge to Kat and Jess going to a joint appointment.
- "Wait, you're what?" Rita said.
- Kat lowered her voice. "You know Jess runs an agency," she said quietly. "I'm going to have a little fun before we settle down."
