Life Saving Dal

Life Saving Dal (2017) Ada Maria Soto

It’s been one year since his divorce was finalized, but Nathan still fantisizes things aren’t truly over.

“Waiting for the other half of that?” He nodded to Nathan’s ring on the bar top.

Nathan shrugged again. “My ex-husband loved movies, the kind with big romantic gestures at the end. The ‘race to the airport to confess love at the last second’ scenes.”

“And you’re looking over your shoulder waiting for him to come racing in.” A statement, not a question, but still said gently.

None of Nathan’s friends had marked the date and he hadn’t mentioned it, not wanting to talk to anyone who already knew the sordid details and would try to talk sense to him. “We had our first date here. I proposed here. I know he came here after we signed the divorce papers.”

But his ex is on the other side of the world, so perhaps he should take a chance on this stranger.

This is pretty much not my thing, but I did enjoy seeing Nathan coming to accept that he is deserving of the kindness and gentleness Kris gives him.
