Chapter 4

She likes to chat. And she makes a lot of noise when she brings in meals. Still laughing with her eyes.

Saw her walking around the lake. She stood a long time, staring at the house on her return. Not sure why. Maybe she appreciates the view.

She talked more when she brought up my dinner. Best lasagna I’ve ever had. I’m surprised she isn’t married. Maybe she has a boyfriend. Of course she must.

Not my business.

She smells like something fresh and light. Kept smelling her even after she left the room.

I knew she would be trouble.
