“Oh, right,” Gwen said, beaming.

After the two of them said goodbye, Caroline gave Kirk a call. “Let’s have dinner together tonight.” Even though they were married, they stayed in their respective homes. Strictly speaking, they had never even had lunch or dinner together. “Sure,” Kirk replied, the corner of his lips already tilting upward in a smile.

“Well then, come to my house. What do you want for dinner? I’ll go buy the ingredients to make it.”
