“Jeff? What makes you think I’m pulling his chain?” “He’s asked you out three times this week and you’ve refused each time.” “So how is that pulling his chain?” Darbi shrugged. “I don’t know. I mean... well, he just looks so tense and frustrated lately. And he’s taken to lying in wait for me.” Sharde stiffened. “What do you mean?” “I mean lately I’m nearly tripping over him. If I go into the coffee room, he’s right behind me. When I arrive at work in the morning, he’s hanging in the parking lot waiting to hold the door open for me. Today, he asked me to have lunch.” Sharde swallowed. “Did you?” “No. I had plans, but he implied he’d ask me again.” “I didn’t know he was...” “Interested in me? He’s not. He wants to pick my brain about information about you. I think maybe you need to give him a break before he explodes.” She closed her eyes briefly.
