“I could ask you that same question.”
“You know I’m not married,” she said with an unexpected sharpness.
“No, not really.”
“Well, I’m not,” she declared.
A silence followed during which she felt his eyes appraise her as though trying to figure out what was going on inside her head. In doing that, he didn’t bother to hide the fire that sprang into his eyes.
Out of self-defense, Emma avoided further eye contact, then asked, “Have you ever been married?” she pressed, mostly because he seemed so reluctant to answer that question.
His lips tightened, forming a straight line. “Once.”
“I see.”
“I doubt that, but it’s okay. It’s something I don’t like to talk about.”
“Most men don’t.” Emma couldn’t quite keep the sarcasm out of her voice.
His eyebrows kicked up. “Ouch.”
She grinned. “Sorry, that was uncalled for.”
Another silence, then he asked, “How do you like your lemonade?”
“It’s the best.”
“Good.”
Emma cast him another glance. “You haven’t always driven a plant truck, have you?”
He sighed. “You don’t give up, do you?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she said with faked innocence.
“Sure,” he muttered with a down-turned mouth.
