Chapter forty-eight
After the door closed behind Matt and Mary, Rick turned to Dianna, who still wasn't sure how he felt or what he was going to do. He looked at Dianna, who was standing there, looking back at him waiting for his response. "What do you think?" he asked her.
Dianna shrugged. "It sure is a wild story, isn't it?" she said. "But...but I think Matt does love your Mom. And it kinda sounds like she may be in love with him, too. If that's so, how do you feel about it?"
Rick shook his head. "Jeezum, to be honest with you, I'm not sure," he said. He stood there quietly, lost in thought, for a minute or two. "I guess it's OK. I'm gonna have to think about it a while, I guess. I hope I'll get used to it. God, I don't know what I'd do if Mom and I weren't getting along."
"You will," Dianna said. "You love your Mom and she loves you."
Rick smiled. "How late are your folks going to be?" he asked her.
