into town and you’ll see it on your right. The green-and-white sign kind of jumps out at you.”
    â€œThank you. I think I’ll try it.”
    He walked back to the front door. “Suit yourself, but I think you’ll be disappointed.”
    â€œAs long as I don’t have to pick the food myself, I’ll enjoy it.”
    Rollin went inside and Tayler opened her computer back up. She hadn’t been able to catch Nicole by phone, so she sent her another email. She was going to wring that chick’s neck.
    A few minutes later, Rita poked her head out the door and announced that lemonade would be served in the library.
    â€œRita, you didn’t have to go to any trouble for me.”
    â€œHoney, it’s no trouble at all. Besides, around here folks is dropping by all the time. Come on in and help yourself.”
    Tayler went inside for her afternoon treat. First, she ran upstairs and grabbed her book. The minute she opened the door to head back outside with her goods, two children came barreling through the door, screaming as they shot past her.
    She spun around and almost dropped her glass.
    â€œI smell cookies, I smell cookies,” they screamed.
    Kids. Please don’t tell me they’ve come to stay. She could hear her peace coming to an end.
    Juggling her lemonade, cookies and book, she continued out onto the porch to retain her seat.
    â€œYou must be Tayler,” a woman who didn’t look a day over twenty asked as she came up the steps.
    â€œHow did I give myself away?”
    â€œRollin said you were the only guest.”
    â€œOh, that made it easy.”
    â€œHi, I’m Corra, his sister.” She held out her hand.
    Tayler juggled a hand free. “Hold on, let me set some of this down.” She placed everything on the table next to her laptop and shook the woman’s hand. “It’s nice to meet you, Corra. Do the little ones belong to you?”
    â€œYes, those are mine. They smelled Rita’s chocolate chip cookies the minute they stepped out of the car. I swear, it’s like they’re cookie bloodhounds.”
    Tayler chuckled. “They are good.”
    Corra placed a hand on her large hips. “I need cookies like I need a hole in my head, so I’ll take your word for it.”
    Tayler returned to her seat.
    â€œAre you enjoying your stay so far?”
    â€œYes, I am. This is a lovely place.”
    Corra walked over and sat in the swing across from Tayler’s rocking chair. “I hope Rollin is being hospitable.”
    â€œHe is, and so is Rita. Everyone’s been very nice.”
    â€œWell, that’s good. Rollin said you’re staying for a month, is that right?”
    Tayler sipped her lemonade and nodded. “Yes, maybe longer. I’m not sure yet.”
    â€œWow, where do you work that you can take that much time off? I’ve been at Save-A-Lot for over three years and all I get is a lousy two weeks.”
    â€œI work for MesaCom, a small telecommunications company. I needed to get out of the city, so I took some extra vacation time.”
    â€œOh, I see. Is that your laptop?” she asked, noticing it on the table next to Tayler.
    â€œYeah.”
    â€œAre you pretty good with computers?”
    â€œI think so.”
    â€œGreat. We’re having a fund-raiser for Roosevelt Elementary trying to put a computer in every classroom. You’d think the board would supply something so vital nowadays, but no, they’re too busy making sure their members get raises.”
    â€œThat’s definitely a worthy cause. Every child today should have a computer. If not, they’ll get left behind.”
    â€œGirl, that’s what I’ve been saying. But you know trying to convince some of them board members of that is like trying to talk a turtle into running a marathon. The PTA’s taken it upon ourselves to raise the money. Maybe you can help since you’re going to be here for a
