Chapter 12
- I give a quick shake of my head, and even manage to give Carmen a smile. I like her a lot more now that I know Luc isn’t interested in her. She smiles back, even if it doesn’t reach her eyes, and leaves to go and prepare our meals.
- We sit around the table, and I’m expecting cafeteria-style food, but Carmen sets down three plates that look absolutely mouthwatering. My steak is cooked to perfection, and I’ve also been given a baked potato and a mix of steamed vegetables. She tops off our sodas and sets a glass of red wine down in front of Luc.
- “Wow,” I say after my first bite. “This is delicious.”
