Sally gave a startled laugh. "I honestly do not know how he would react if you did. I should hope he'd be flattered, but not reciprocate. Gracefully, of course. I do apologize for my reactions. I have no excuse beyond, what was it Peter called? Yes, 'Lizard brain.'"

It was so much fun." Leaning forward to pick up her tea cup she said, "You're lucky I'm not the jealous type, you know."
