Summary
Choosing her words carefully, Karen asked, “Aren’t you at least a little bit interested?”
Nancy—her brow furrowed in confusion—answered, “In what?”
“It’s just…you’re still single.”
“Thank you for pointing out the abysmally sad state of my love life, Mother, but I’m busy and don’t need—”

Nancy’s cheeks flushed pink instantly. “Wha–I don’t–I’m going to bed,” she fumbled out and stood up to leave.
“Nancy Elizabeth, don’t you dare try to tell me that you haven’t been head over heels for that girl for years.”
