Well, when I said follow me I didn't mean NEXT to me… thought Karen. She was now thoroughly annoyed.
"Actually, you know what? I've got to… urm… head home," she said.
He looked disappointed, which soothed Karen a little bit.
"I'll swing by the bar tonight, then."
Frustration back. "Great," she said before turning and heading 'home'. She was really heading towards the mountain. Oh please, don't follow me! She looked back to see him heading towards the farm. Have fun Ann… Karen thought with a smug look on her face.
The Bar that night
"Here you go, sir," Karen said, almost cheerily, as she gave a beer to the mailman. He tipped her and she walked away. Not too shabby, thought Karen while fingering the tip in her pocket. She looked up and saw Tyson. Oh shi…
"Hi Karen!" he said, interrupting her thoughts.
Karen gave a small, almost shy wave. Kai saw her from his seat in the back and almost spit out his drink with laughter. Good thing you didn't, she thought, because it wouldn't be me cleaning that mess up! Oh no, here he comes…
"I'll have a glass of wine, please," Tyson said.
"Sure, have a seat over there," she said, pointing towards Kai. Kai shook his head, but she nodded hers and gave him a menacing smile. Take that, you loser!
Karen brought over the drinks, then sat down at the table. She had made sure that nobody needed anything first, she was a bit sad that nobody had needed anything at the moment.
"So… Kai tells me that he works for your father."
"Yup," Karen said. Just be short, sweet and to the point!
"Yeah, I told him he could stop by anytime, you know… to say hi or something," Kai said.
Karen flinched.
"If it's all right with you of course."
"Of course!" Karen said. No it's not, no it's not, not it's not!
"Sure, maybe I'll swing by tomorrow. But now I have to go. Good-bye Kai, good-night Karen!"
As he left the room, Karen let her head collapse on the table and Kai's silent chuckles turned into laughter. This is just great… thought Karen.
(Here yah go! RR I know you like your chapters longer, but I don't have much time and I thought this might be a nice place to stop.)
