“Yeah, I’m having a girl’s night with my best friend tonight, and I wanted to get something comfortable,” she said. “Maybe some new PJs?” It was a lie; Nan had plenty of Pjs and comfy clothes to wear tonight, but she needed an excuse as to why she was back so soon.
Becky nodded, not picking up on the lie.
“I think I have just the thing,” she said as she walked out from behind the counter. “We got some new Pjs in yesterday, so this is good timing. ”
Lucky me… Nan thought to herself.
As she went to the pajama section, Nan watched her. Becky was so beautiful. This was the woman that her mate chose instead of her, and it made Nan’s heart hurt with every beat.
Becky returned with a cute pajama set and Nan forced a smile, barely even looking at the set in her hands.
“It’s perfect,” she said mindlessly.
“Do you want to try it on?” Becky asked, raising her hands.
“No, need. I’m sure they’ll fit fine,” Nan said, nibbling on her lower lip.
Becky chuckled and walked back towards the counter.
“Well okay then,” Becky replied over her shoulder.
“So…” Nan said as she followed her to the counter. “How was your date the other night?”
Becky shrugged.
“The date itself was fine. He was such a gentleman,” Becky answered. “I was he’d invite me to his place …but he didn’t. He dropped me off at home and kissed my cheek.”
Nan’s chest tightened; his lips were on her skin? The thought made Nan feel sick to her stomach and she had to swallow down the bile that rose in her throat.
“But he’s been a little absent–minded lately,” Becky continued. “Like there’s been something on his mind. We’ve seen each other a couple of times since that date, and it was the same… it’s obvious he isn’t telling me something. I think there might be someone else.”
