Chapter 37: Easier Said than Done

Logan

After Lycia fell asleep, I rose from the bed and headed into the cabin of the plane, unable to sleep.

Evelyn looked up as soon as she saw me. “May I get you something?”

I nodded, letting out a deep breath as I sat in the club chair next to the window and leaned back to relax. “Bourbon, neat.”

A smile lit her lips. “Coming right up.” She darted behind the curtain and was back a moment later. “If you’re worried about Lycia and the baby, don’t. They’ll be fine.”

I nodded, taking my drink. “Thanks.” Even though Evelyn was the grandmotherly type and easy to talk to, I just wasn’t in the mood. I smirked, knowing that I was older than her by several decades. It was ironic that she was giving me advice, but I said nothing about it, knowing she meant well. “I’m fine, but thanks.”

She nodded, concern filling her eyes. “Well, if you need anything or get hungry, let me know. I’ll be right over there.” She motioned toward the seat where she usually stayed during flights.
