I glanced at my watch, wondering if I had time to respond to Marty. Theo had called to suggest the movie about an hour ago, and he’d called from Montpelier and had said he needed to stop home to change first. I guessed I probably had the time to get something quick off to Marty.
I’m so glad you got home safe. I hope you had a good time.
I found out Donald had been keeping something pretty major from me. George told me Donald had a wife and a son before we met. I still can’t quite figure out why he didn’t think he could tell me all this himself. Anyway, I really wish I hadn’t had to tell you about Donald via e-mail, but Emily talked me into coming here for a month’s visit. It’s been pretty good so far.
I paused, wondering if I should mention Theo. He wasn’t a secret, but I wasn’t sure how to go about it without sounding like I jumped from Donald to Theo right away. Had I? I did think maybe I should be slowing down. But Marty wouldn’t judge me.
