“Give me time to think about this. And to get settled in and find a place to live and a job.”
All he said in reply was, “How long?”
I shrugged. “I was aiming for a week before deciding if I had to move on.”
“Very good. I’ll get in touch with you this time next week.”
I smiled slightly. “So class is dismissed for now?”
“It is. Unless you want to talk sports or what have you.” He grinned, so I knew he was kidding.
“I’ll expect a call in a week,” I said, getting up.
“Zane. I hope you make the right decision.”
“For you? Or for me?”
“For both of us.”
