Still trying to remember note to self, three. (p. 119)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThis house is really nice. I thought teachers were poorly paid.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are.\u201d Adam poured the drinks. \u201cThis was my grandparents\u2019 cottage. As their only grandchild, they left it to me. I\u2019d rather still have them here and be a lodger or something.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWant us to hold the door?\u201d Why the hell couldn\u2019t Robin come up with some brilliant case-related question that would keep Adam here for just a few minutes more and get those eyes to look up from the floor? <\/p>\n

\u201cNo, that\u2019ll be okay. Thanks. You soon learn how to manoeuvre through with just your backside.\u201d Adam exchanged a brief glance with Robin, clearly horrified at his choice of words, then was off.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The perfect amount of cozy to get my out of my own head.<\/p>\n
