I eat the sandwich Rose had waiting for me in silence. I can feel her eyes on me, but I don't give her the satisfaction of acknowledging her until I'm finished.
When I can stall no longer, I toss my paper plate into the trash and look up. Might as well get this shit over with.
"Nothing happened," I say, expecting a tirade about fraternizing with employees.
"That's too bad."
For once, I can't read her tone, but her eyes are soft. She frowns.
"Don't look at me that way, Jasper. You deserve some happiness after all you've been through."
