The Perfect Nora Payne.
I look up at the table across the coffee shop. The one we sat in during our “first date.” She told me all about Robbie and his drinking problem and how he…
Never gave up. He’s never given up on the love of his life.
“Hey, Rob.”
He pauses and turns back to me.
“Thanks,” I say. “You’re kind of a cool guy.”
He smiles. “Yeah, that’s me.”
Robbie exits the shop and zips up his jacket as he starts walking down the street, happily sucking on his hot pink straw.
If I was that much in love, I don’t think I’d give up so easily.
I told her that. Nora thinks I’m a liar now.
I’m going to prove her wrong.
