The Wait Book Novelas e Histórias

The table was set with exquisite silverware and fresh flowers. It was the kind of fussy display Elara had always hated, but it was the "lady of the house" life Chloe had always dreamed of. I walked slowly to the head of the table and slammed a thick file folder down. The silverware clattered from the impact. "Do you know what this is?" "I don't know what you're talking about..." "Open it." She hesitantly broke the seal. The first photo slid out, a surveillance screenshot of her cousin Lisa buying a prepaid phone at a convenience store in Queens.

Chapter 412 Mimi walked to the door to take the food. She didn't want the waiter to enter the private room in case Jocelyn would be recognized. She opened the door. As expected, a waiter pushed a moving cart to deliver the food to them. She cleared her throat and said, "There is no need for you to come in. Please wait outside. After I take the food, I will return the moving cart to you!" The waiter knew that different people had different habits, so he nodded and waited outside quietly.

He nodded once, palming the book into his coat pocket as if it was evidence in a case he wasn't ready to break yet. Aria’s laugh echoed from the back, and he turned toward it. That was why he came, after all. Not for the book. Not for the woman with ink-stained fingers and stars in her eyes. Or so he told himself. “I’ll wait for her out front,” he said. Lena nodded. “Take your time.” He turned to go, but paused at the door. Glanced back. “You always hand books out to strange men in suits?” "Only the ones who appear to have forgotten how to feel," she said, soft but unafraid.

Finally, I get to the pizza shop. The place is cozy and warm, just what I need for the weather. As expected, heads spin in my direction. I ignore the soft murmuring and walk over to the table at the extreme. A male waiter comes to me shortly after. “Hello, ma’am.” He grins, holding a book tightly to his pants. “What would you like to get?” He’s a ducking stud. Hot. Sexy. Bad. I see how he grips tightly to his book in a bid to cover the swell in his groin.

Why does she always look so at peace around sad stories? “Oh—right,” I stammered when I realized she was waiting for an answer. “It’s, uh, The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg.” She nodded thoughtfully. “Do you want us to find it first?” I shook my head. “Why?” she pressed, but I only shrugged. Rolling her eyes, she placed another hardcover on my growing pile. “Let’s go check if they have a cart.” My eyes widened. “How many are you planning to buy?”

But even the regular ward didn't look casual. I walked to an empty table for two and settled on one of the couches. A young guy dressed in a white shirt and black pants walked to me with a book in his hand. That had to be one of the waiters and the book was the menu for meals. "Good day, ma'am," he said to me in a very sweet tone. "Please, what can we offer you?" My face dissolved in a warm smile. "Not yet, please. I'm here with someone. I will wait for him to come in first. He's making a phone call out there."

I stopped by to grab a business book and spent my time reading it while waiting for my turn. The waiting area was small, just four chairs and a coffee table covered in magazines from three years ago. Beside me was a man sitting in the chair nearest the window, his leg bouncing like he was nervous. As nervous as I was but covered it with a business book when I had no business. He looked up at me and smiled like we've known each other for years. "Are you here for the admin position?" he asked, turning to face me. "Uh…yes," I replied, moving a bit farther from him.

ANISA. I blinked once, twice. Then squeezed my eyes tightly shut and waited. But as the stillness continued to stretch with each passing second, I knew nothing had happened. At least not yet. Maybe I need to wait a little longer first. So, I kept my eyes shut. Waiting. Waiting for a light, or perhaps, a certain flash that would indicate I had left the book and was back in my real world. I waited for any slight sign that would show the rejection had worked, and I had safely returned home.

Before Lily's surgery, the nurse slid the consent form across to me. I called my husband, Ethan Reid, eleven times. When the twelfth call finally connected, the first voice I heard was his first love, Claire Bennett, on the verge of tears: "Ethan, the zipper on my wedding dress is stuck. Don't leave yet." I looked at my daughter, white with pain in the hospital bed, and said, "Lily's waiting for you." Ethan was silent for two seconds before saying, "Just sign it. I'll get there later." Later, Lily studied the lone guardian's signature on the form and asked, "Mom, can I leave Dad off the school forms from now on?" I said she could. From that day on, she stopped leaving room for Ethan anywhere
