“ Rhoda?” he asked, walking closer to her, trying his best to believe it wasn’t her, but it was, he knew it, but he didn’t want it to be.
Dear God, he thought.
“ In truth.” she said, a light laugh escaping her lips, he wasn’t deceived. He saw the calculated gli

Meet Me Halfway Chapter 39
The sooner the better.That was Winslow's mantra as he drove over to Callum's place. It might become obvious to callum that he had followed right behind Aine for their meeting. But there was an urgency in him that didn’t allow him to wait for a day or two. His gut was speaking. And the most important rule of being a police officer?You never ignored your gut.He stopped his car in front of Callum's place and brought the cup of coffee he had stopped for on the way there to his lips.This had to end. All of it simply had to end. And it was going to end on his terms, or his name wasn't Winslow Simon. And on that vow he got out and made his way to Callum's apartment.He saw the surprise register in Callum's eyes when he opened door and then the comprehension,"I suppose Aine spoke to you.""I suppose you could say that. Is Rhoda in?" callum regarded him for a moment, before finally shrugging, then moving away from the door," Left while I was away today. You can come in to see if you lik

" we need to head home." Aine said on a sigh, after some time. Bryan smiled smiled and looked around." I Don't know, I have a feeling they serve really good for here."She smiled and looked around too, " they actually do, I come here sometimes. But Simon is waiting for us."" we can invite him." she gave a moment's thought. " We could. We actually could, but what if Callum is still around. Winslow shows up, and he could get suspicious, ruining any chance of him wanting to help us again, should the need arise."Bryan nodded, "We'll order to go then." he leaned forward and kissed her forehead, " Be right back."She chuckled as she watched walk off to get them food and shook her head. And chose the time to reflect over what had just happened.Callum, and his new news. Callum and how different he looked, and yet still the same. Callum and the ocean of yesterdays he had completely and senselessly destroyed.It was safe to say the she had reached the part of her healing journey where she

"Everything in order?" Aine asked when she met Bryan at the door, with Winslow behind her."yeah. Sold a horse, grieved a little, the usual." replied and made her smile, then turned to look at the officer that watched them."Everything okay, Winslow?" he nodded and placed his hands in his pocket.There was a time, Simon remembered when he was ready to chase by the butt of his gun any man that so much as breathed the same air as his friend. Just to make sure she was never again traumatized in the name of love.Now, he was going to do just about anything to see the love between the both of them bloom."aine's asked that I follow behind the both of you. Keep watch from a distance."Something passed between the two men, that was lost on Aine.Of course, she had no knowledge of the fact that Winslow had gotten people who did just that. And both n were of the mind to keep things as they were. Unknown to Aine"I just needed to make sure that someone that is a part of the law is close by. In

She told Bryan about her plan when he'd woken up and for the longest time he said nothing, while she just waited,“You say Winslow is on this?” He finally said and she nodded,“He said he’ll come, but will keep his distance, so as not to set Callum on edge and make him bulk.” A ghost of a smile appeared on Bryan’s face and he nodded,“I see. That’s not a bad plan.”“So how do we get back to him? Tell him we’re interested in what he has to say, did he leave a phone number?”“Hold on a sec.” He got up and went in search of the letter, read through it, “yes, just one.”Aine sent up a prayer for guidance and blew out a breath, “Alright. Let’s give him a call.”She had chosen not to say a word, but Bryan had left the call on loudspeaker so she could hear all that was being said.His voice hadn’t really changed and it took her to a time and place that she had truly forgotten once ever truly existed.Before it had gotten bad with Callum, it was simply good and she couldn’t help but remember

Bryan registered the look on Aine’s face and promised himself that if he ever came across the Callum bloke he was going to give him a good pounding.“Do you... do you want to open it?” She asked Bryan, looking at the letter as though it was a key to unlock all sorts of vile evil things.“I should be asking you, Aine.” He said and place a hand on her cheek. She was pale and clammy and although he touched her gently, he was brimming with absolute anger.“I don’t, not really. But if it’s connected to Rhoda in any way. Connected to everything that is happening, then I suppose I need to. I don’t want to, but I might need to.”“Inside. We will take this inside.” He opened il the door and took her hand in his, leading her into the house,“Lord, why won’t these people leave us alone.” She groaned out as she sat on the couch, burying her face into her hands.“Hey, hey.” He sat beside her, and place a hand over her shoulders, gently dropping her hands and lifting her head by her chin. “It’s oka

“I get really worried when you get quiet this way,” Callum said as he stood watching Rhoda while she brooded at the dining table in the home they shared.“What do you care?” She said, without looking up at him. “I’m sure you can’t wait for the day this is all over so you can be rid of me.”True, he thought. But said nothing. Sometimes he asked himself why he even said yes to her in the first place.“Here we go.” He said, and sat on ie of the chairs, “alright, tell me. What’s got your buns in a twist?”“That’s highly unlikely. C’mon, tell me about it.”“As you’re aware, the officer is on to me.”“So you see, that I was right and that we need to leave .”She turned to face him and shot him daggers through her eyes,“Leave? Leaveeee? I’m not going anywhere! Well, of course, I need to hasten up now. But I’m not going anywhere until I’m done.”He shook his head.“Your desire for revenge is going to send you to jail.”“My desire? This was our desire, Callum. Remember? Me and you? It was what
