The Horne Saga Ch. 04: Entanglement

... the wait. Did you kids behave out here?" Evelyn spoke with her normal tone, a soft joy to her words as Riley tried to glean any hint from her behavior. He didn't know how to ask her where she was without the potential of giving himself away... He felt trapped.

"Uh... Yeah, we were good... But... Umm... What was... Taking... So long... In there?" Riley tried his best to speak like his usual self, cursing his nervous stammers as he attempted to probe for an answer.

"Oh, I went to use the restroom, but I got held up. I didn't mean to take so long, but something else came up that needed my full attention, and I guess I lost track of time. Alexis said you were waiting in the store, but I must have missed you. It's fine; we can get back on the road now." Evelyn gave no hint as to what she was doing; her vague answer only making Riley go even crazier as he searched for any deeper meaning.

Was she in the store waiting for her turn to use the restroom? Taking a phone call? Shoplifting? Hell, he'd be fine if she was just jerking herself off in the woods or something... Wait, wouldn't she still need to go to the bathroom if she missed her turn...? Riley decided to press one more time... Desperately hoping for some kind of confirmation

"Did you... At least get to use the restroom?" Riley asked cautiously, meeting her gaze as she looked at him, concerned.

"I'm fine, Riley, really... Are you okay, though? You seem a ...

Fuck, he missed a spot...

"Oh, sorry... Uh, I... Uhm, I'm fine. You're right. We should probably get back on the road..." Riley still wasn't sure; his voice now a higher pitch as he nervously tried to change the topic. He couldn't press any harder, his heart still banging against his chest as he fought off the emotionally conflicting possibilities.

Evelyn started the car with a concerned look, her eyes glancing at Riley as he pretended not to have a panic attack. He looked over at the building, the car passing by its windows as it pulled out of the lot.

Riley caught the worker standing behind the counter.... Still reading her magazine with her back facing them... Maybe it was her... She seemed nice... Still... If it was, he would have liked to get to know her... He bet they could have been close...

A cloud of dust kicked up behind them as the SUV pulled back onto the main road, displacing gravel as they picked up speed. The image of the place lingered in Riley's mind, unsure if he had just crossed a barrier he thought was off-limits... He looked at his Mom as she concentrated on the road, his heart fluttering as he fell back in his seat...

A single thought ran across his mind as he watched her...

"Thank you... ...
