“I'm sorry, it's probably not my business." He shook his head. "No, it's okay. One of the things I like about you is that you always say what you mean." Huh. That was a thing that most people didn't like about her. She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. He turned and kissed her on the lips. "Thanks for listening. I'm sorry if I---" She held her finger up to his lips to stop him. "No apologies. We all need a shoulder to lean on sometimes. I wouldn't have offered mine if I didn't want to.”
