“ I do .” She sat the pastry box on the counter . “ Um , did you receive my invoice ?”
“ Yes , yes .” She started nodding . “ I ’ ll take care of it , but I ’ m in a bit of a hurry . That ’ s not a problem , is it ?”
Maybelle ’ s shoulders sagged . “ I ’ ll expect you to pay the invoice next week .”
“ Of course , of course .” She patted her hand , grabbed her bag , and dashed out the door .
“ That woman has more excuses than a thief .” The young woman working with Maybelle said . She picked up her empty tip jar and stared into it like it was a spyglass . “ And such a big tipper .”
Now I have a spark . I know my hero is a banker . Why not have him volunteer to help her balance her books and get her patrons to pay ? The plot begins !
I hope you ’ re enjoying the glimpse into a panter ’ s process . I ’ m enjoying sharing it . Next month I ’ ll have to figure out how Brian will broach the subject with Maybelle .
