She doesn't need to be embarrassed about calling him during the night, but avoiding him will only draw attention to it. It is strange that she doesn't feel reticent about applying the aloe to his back, in a back room. But I am enjoying your story, and I don't think you need to feel insecure about your writing. It's always good.

I don't understand why Emma is so hesitant about Seth. Or why she would apologize for the night before. Calling someone for support when you're frightened is the natural thing to do. As perfect as Seth seems, maybe they just aren't right for each other.

    We'll have to wait and see how this develops. Emma is extremely innocent.

Well, he almost touched her back as they crossed the street. He knows she's feeling vulnerable right now and is considerate of her feelings. I've been a victim of these kinds of "violations", and it takes time to feel comfortable again.

We know they will eventually get together - just don't make us wait so long!!

You said in your author's notes you're never comfortable with your writing. That surprised me a lot. I think your dialogue, especially, is very good.

See you next week.

    Thank you for the encouragement. It'll be a while before they admit their feelings, but does happen. I like to build relationships, first.

Such a wonderful read. I hope these two get together eventually, even though he is a bit older. You are doing well with this drama/Romance. Nice and long. I don't mind. No spags.

It seems that Emma is a lot more reticent after her adventures the day before, and she comes into work a little later than usual, she seems to be avoiding Seth at first, but after awhile she brightens a little and makes her statement later, typing too, beautifully written Barbara, blessings Roy

The events you document so well, seem so normal and expected that it is like reading a true story rather fiction. There are few people who can create a story that seems so real. It is really like like looking at real people doing real things. That is a rare gift. It is what makes you a real and true writer.

Great description of reactions after the attempted robbery and the threat to Emma. Note to Seth: Let Emma walk across the street by herself. Interesting idea to expand the bookstore. Maybe that would be a good place for Emma--managing the bookstore. Seth's two-fingered approach to keyboarding is like my doctors'. My optometrist was extremely slow. Wonder what Ace found that was so important. I enjoy the addition of the dogs to your story. The chapter moved along just great. judi

    Thank you for the kind review. I think Seth walked her across the street because he wanted to spend more time with her. LOL

Another very interesting twist to your story. I feel like Emma is leaning to trust Seth and that he is trying hard to know just how to interact with her. She was brave to face her fears and return to work.

Hi Barbara, aw, me thinks that progress is being made between Emma and Seth. It is a well written chapter and You've set it up well for the next one.
I only found this:
Exhaling(,) Seth said

This should make a good clean movie if some are still around. Looks as if this romance is coming together. Glad nobody was hurt in the robbery. Thanks for sharing.
