Chapter 44: ENOUGH TRUST: NOAH

For a few seconds I felt numb then a rush of overwhelming feelings swamped me. A large lump grew rapidly in my throat and tears welled in my eyes despite my best efforts to hang in there with my emotions until she'd gone.

I felt it was high time I had a reprieve from the worries that plagued my crazy life. Inappropriate or not I grabbed her off her stool and swung her around in a huge circle. If I could have bottled the stunned look she gave me, I'd have made a fortune from it at horror events.

"Seriously? I may get access to Rudi?" My voice was gruff with emotion. I set her back on her feet and I ran my hands through my hair in disbelief as I continually swallowed back the tears that burned in my throat.
