But then he discovers that he's going to get more than he bargained for when he finds out something Julia had kept secret ...

A Touch of Lilt

She could certainly vouch for it;it was not a hoax.Julia had made a decision to leave after that when Clancy showed he didn’t care for her welfare at all.The man she had started dating in senior year of college wasn’t there anymore.Maybe he hadn’t been there at all and Julia just hadn’t noticed.


It had given her a little satisfaction that Clancy and his mother got COVID shortly after Julia left after going to the beach as a large family gathering.She had no sympathy for them.Considering how they had been behaving during the lockdown and the restrictions,it was a wonder they hadn’t caught it earlier.


But didn’t you break the rules by going over to Keith’s apartment a couple of nights after moving in?You weren’t supposed to interact in the way you did.


I broke the rules then.But I don’t regret it.
