Bab 20: Chapter 20

CHRISTINE

I see Lara enter the coffee shop and I wave to get her attention. She smiles when she sees me and crosses to the table. I stand and we kiss each other's cheeks on both sides before sitting down.

The waiter arrives almost as soon as we’re seated and we place our orders without looking at the menus. We’ve been coming here so long we know what’s great and what’s not. The waiter leaves and we start to chat.

“You’re looking great,” I compliment Lara.

“Thank you. I started a diet and I’ve been sticking to it for once. I’ve also started jogging every day.”

“Wow, why the sudden change?”

“Well, you know, Brad started making remarks about how much he likes that there’s so much more of me to grab since I picked up some weight. It seems to drive him crazy in bed.”

“So enjoy it, girl,” I say.
