sedan to me, but what did I know?—I briefly contemplated my issues with words like fiance, wedding,
husband, etc.
I just couldn’t put it together in my head.

Like always, as soon as I started thinking about Edward I was caught up in a dizzy spin of fantasies. The
stranger had to clear his throat to get my attention; he was still waiting for an answer about the car’s make
