She could hear the smile in his tone. It irked her. “Don’t flatter yourself. I’m calling to find out if you need me to do anything today? You know, the doting wife and all.”
“That’s a dangerous offer? Are you offering something specific?”
“Only those things that include clothing.”
“Ahh, there went my hopes.”
She could never tell when he was teasing or serious, but the strain in his voice told her it could go either way.
“Relax. That’s all you need to do until tonight. See you soon.” He clicked off.
She sat for a long time thinking over his words, but refused to stay immobilized in emotion.
