I followed the sound to the kitchen and found it sitting on the counter near the sink.I planned to let it go to voice mail, but Kat’s name flashed across the screen. My hand rose and hovered above the phone for a moment, my palms itching to pick it up. I grabbed it and hit accept. “Hi, Kat, this is Tess.”“Tess? Is Lenny around?” Kat asked. “He’s gone out looking at apartments. How are you doing?” I didn’t want to pry (well, yes, I did very much want to pry), but she sounded upset.The sounds of a muffled sob filtered through the phone. “I can’t believe he left me here. All I wanted was to make him commit. I mean, I know he loves me. Why doesn’t he want to marry me?”I felt her pain, though getting the guy to give me the ring was never my problem. My issue was pinning my groom down to a date. I’d had two guys propose in the last few years, and neither had worked out. But looking back, I don’t think either guy really knew what love was, so I could hardly expect them to make the kind of commitment I’d felt.
