"Ally," Jennifer said ,"you look absolutely wiped out. Before you do anything, at least let me fix you a sandwich. I think there's some turkey in the fridge."
"I was thinking about that." She glanced at Stone. "You want something?"
"Sure. I'll have whatever you're having."
"Don't be so sure. Jen can tell you I take mayo and mustard both. I know it's weird but that's the way I am."
"Then I'll give it a try. I want to get to know you all over again."
"Also, I hate to say it, but I think maybe I ought to swing by the apartment and get some things. Just in case."
She listened to her own voice and wondered, would whatever happened to Kristen happen to me too?
Maybe, she thought, what I really ought to take with me is a gun. Maybe Katherine Starr had the right idea.
Jennifer finished the sandwiches and was wrapping them. "Ally, I'll go with you to your place and pick up Knickers. She can stay with me till you know what's going on."
"Thanks, Jen. I was hoping you'd volunteer." She knew she could have dropped a hint and made it happen anyway, but this was nicer.
