"I'll get some more coffee." Sarah started to rise from the couch.

"No." He held up a hand. "I'm fine. No, not fine," he corrected himself, "but I don't think I should drink more coffee."

Before I could blink I was divorced, Lacey had a hefty property settlement and I had sole custody of Toby."

"Lucky for him," she said.

He could almost see a smile on her face. Still, he knew he was not out of the woods here yet. Far from it.
