Gage had played off my absence as exhaustion and a touch of some virus going around. I owed him big time. Amanda walked up carrying my coffee and it took everything I had not to gag at the smell. She thrust it into my hands, and I grabbed it before it fell to the ground. “I appreciate that you brought me coffee this morning, my stomach isn’t up for it yet,” I said. As Stephen passed by, I handed it off to him. He grabbed it from me and shot Amanda a smile. She didn’t smile back. “Are you sure you don’t want a drink of mine? Just a sip?” She was fishing for a reaction from me, but I didn’t understand why. I took a step back to get away from the cup she tried to hand me. “No thanks,” I said gagging. “I’m still not quite myself.” What the hell? Why was she still pushing? She took a huge gulp of coffee and my stomach turned just watching her. I normally enjoyed the smell of coffee, but I didn’t know how much more I could take.
