"You don't mean it?" Ari asked, the shock evident on his face. I was recounting the event of the day with her. " He was at your house?" I nodded as I thought back to this evening. If anyone asked me about this evening, I really wouldn't know how to answer.
It was not exactly what I had in mind, but it sure as hell makes me happy. The thought of being in a closed space with the two people who manage to make my blood boil without working too hard was suffocating.
First of all, the dreadful dinner did not hold. Aiden and his mom were here for only about ten minutes when they got a frightening call that Aiden's grandmother fell down the stairs and is in the hospital. Even though that did make me a tad bit happy, I felt bad for the poor old lady.
I'm sure Aiden didn't know he was coming to my house. I could tell from the way his eyes widened when he saw me. We stared at each other for almost 5 minutes in complete shock.
