Last Week
After everyone applauded again, the party started to break up. “I’ll walk out with you,” Andy said as Ms. Wolf picked up her small, black, sequined purse and prepared to leave.
She shot him a look that would curdle milk. “That’s quite all right, Mr. Bryce. Mr. Melton will email the coordinates to my laptop, so I suggest we meet at seven tomorrow morning for breakfast. How about the IHOP on the highway? As soon as we receive the coordinates we’ll get going.”
“Who’s driving? Me or you?”
“I will.”

This week: In Andy's POV
Well, that doesn't bode well for Andy. SHe wants to cancel. I wonder what she signed up for in the first place. Good snippet, Elaine. Easy to visualize her actions.
ReplyDeleteAs always, Elaine, you tell your story so well.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Teresa - why did she agree?
ReplyDeleteCuriouser and curiouser. I'm on board to discover what's behind her behavior.
ReplyDeleteI love how she really feels like a woman with a secret and with a load of anger.
ReplyDeleteWhich raises an interesting queastion because so far she doesn't seem like the type to want to win money for a charity...so why is she playing the game at ALL? I have a feeling there are a lot of good plot twists ahead. Enjoyed the snippet.
ReplyDeleteDoes she somehow think the money is coming to her if she wins? Is there some charity she's dying to get the money? And why is she so opposed to playing the game with Andy? As Veronica said, these and a lot of other very interesting questions are just begging to be answered. Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how this is going to go? Something tells me she won't cancel.
