Ouch. Essie wasn't sure what was worse, Bach calling her just another
woman or the realization that it more or less was true. In theory, he
was going to start working at her shop (if she ever got the guts to
talke to him about it) and they'd slept together, but that didn't make
them... something. Did it? Honestly the whole thing was giving her a
headache. There was no solution to this that didn't end in tears for
someone. Probably Isaac. She only wished that idea didn't break her
heart as much as it did.
"I'm just a friend, Isaac. And you can't make dreams real just by, I
dunno, asking for it? I'm sorry, sweetheart, it just doesn't work that
way." She really shouldn't do what she was about to do, but the words
were coming out before she could stop them. "But if you come by my
shop sometime, I'm sure Dan would like to see you." The dog had been
mopey since everything returned to normal, she should have realized
why sooner.
