"How's it going, working with Merry?" Holly asks as I help her to her SUV.
"It's going." I shrug. "What's surprising to me is that all the older women in town are giving me tips. It makes me feel awful. Merry goes above and beyond for almost anyone who asks it of her and they aren't giving her tips. They're asking her if they can get money off their orders. Meanwhile, here I am, getting crazy tips just for being there."
"I know her and, trust me, she's not keeping tabs."
"I don't think she is," I assure Holly. "But I wish I could give her a little something of what she's given me. Thanks to the tips and steady paycheck, I'm going to have what I need to finish the down payment for the property and house I wanna buy. If it hadn't been for her letting me do this, I wouldn't be there right now."
"Maybe just tell her that," she suggests. "Or is there a little more going on here?"
