“Hi. You missed dinner, so the aunts sent me over with some,” she blurted, feeling the heat singe her cheeks. “I didn’t mean to intrude.”
“You’re not. But you shouldn’t have gone to the trouble. I’m not very hungry.” He stepped inside, set his pack on the tiny table and faced her. “Thank you though.”
“It’s Adele’s lasagna and it’s amazing.” She blinked, then grinned. “You probably already know that. See you.”
Gemma scurried back to the house, feeling like a frightened rabbit. The barrenness of Jake’s quarters and his earlier reticence after she’d asked about The Lillian frightened her. Was that because subconsciously she knew that if he answered all her questions, if he was completely honest with her, she’d know for sure that she didn’t belong at The Haven?
But if she didn’t belong here, then where did she belong? Certainly not in the cheap Toronto apartment the aunts had described. Not anymore. From their description she’d figured it was a tiny place where newlyweds constantly ran into each other and enjoyed it. That romantic place belonged to another newly married Gemma.
This Gemma didn’t want to go there, didn’t want to feel even more out of place, even more distanced from the woman whom everyone but she remembered. More than that, she didn’t want to not belong anywhere else. So during dinner she’d asked her aunts how she could have her things moved without physically traveling to Toronto. Of course they had a friend who had a friend and by next week everything she and Kurt owned would supposedly arrive here at The Haven. And then what?
Her mind immediately turned to Jake. He’d help her deal with it. She didn’t know why she was so sure of that, she just knew it was true. But was it fair to ask him?
Gemma had so many questions about her rescuer and very few answers. So far Jake was the only one who’d expressly said she belonged here.
If only she could believe him.
