Lee wasn’t sure how long he’d dozed before the dog woofed quietly at his feet, then jumped off the couch. Seconds later, the back door opened, and Trish came in, carrying some bags. He got up and went into the kitchen, feeling kind of awkward again. “Need help?” “Please. Drew needed to run into the office for a few hours and left me to get everything ready.” “I’ll help.” “She was counting on it,” Trish said. “If you’ll empty the car, I’ll start putting stuff away.” Lee did as she asked. It felt good to do something useful. And there were a lot of groceries. “You said you were having a party tonight?” He put the last bag down as he closed the door. “What’s the occasion?” “It’s a just-because party, started out to invite a few friends over. Gev.” She hesitated. “Chad. Manny, some of Drew’s coworkers we like. We went on an Alaskan cruise, and Drew wants to force them to see all the pictures she took.” Trish pulled several boxes of party crackers out of a bag.
