One Snowy Night Before Christmas - Plot & Excerpts
Jessie couldn’t get the strange events out of her mind. She’d gone almost a year without seeing Mike. Seeing him three times was just uncanny, but Jessie honestly couldn’t convince herself to be all that upset. If this were a few days ago, before she’d met Tom, would it have hurt more? Would all her old anger have come up, and would she be left feeling lonely and hollow? She glanced in the rearview mirror and saw Amy in the back seat, head tipped up to peer out the window at all the wonderful sights with that magical, childlike wonder filling her eyes. Jessie looked sideways at Tom. He smiled, watching her. Her insides did a little dance. She hardly knew him, but having him here felt good. Maybe she should let herself indulge in a little harmless fantasy with a clear conscience. Knowing beforehand that he would leave would make it painless. The warmth in her insides spiked into a painful shaft of heat. Maybe not. The news regarding his car was not good, and Jessie couldn’t say that disappointed her, either.
