“Oh wow, what a coincidence! Same age, same name!”
Josef’s expression froze. The shift was instant.
“What?” he blurted, almost involuntarily.
“I said, I’m twenty-two as well. I wonder what your granddaughter looks like. It’d be fun to be friends with her…” Violet’s eyes sparkled, blissfully unaware of what she had just stepped into.
