A Wolf After My Own Heart MaryJanice Davidson (children's ebooks online .txt) 📖

can’t read during a procedure, I won’t endure it.”

“God help us if you ever need surgery, then.” Pat inspected his nails, which were spade-shaped and the color of glossy pink pearls. “Got an interview.”

“I figured. The suit and all.”

Pat was wearing one of his brother’s navy-blue pin-striped suits with a crisp white shirt and a pale-blue tie dotted with poppies that looked like blood clots. Though he wouldn’t leave the house, Pat was a big believer in “dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” Which led to some confusion the month he wanted to be a park ranger. (“I don’t care if it’s five below; this is what rangers wear!”) And the following month, when he wanted to be a hippotherapist. (“If you’re going to do physical therapy with horses, this is what it takes!”)

“I’m letting you change the subject in your clumsy and obvious way because I’ve said my piece—”

“Oh God, if only that were true.”

“—and because I want you to get what this means. No longer will I be the homeless parasite suckling at your 24-acre teat!” Pat declared.

“Okay, gross.” Not to mention inaccurate. Pat insisted on paying $666.66 every other month, and he was far from homeless. “You know you don’t have to get another job on my account.”

“This isn’t about you or your account. It’s about me getting a job within these four walls before I go crazy within these four walls.”

“Good for you,” she said, snarfing the last of her runny omelet. “And stop with the matchmaking-roommate trope.”

“I’m the original, dammit! Tropes come from me, not the other way around. Take. That. Back.”

“Nuh-uh. And good luck on your interview. Knock ’em…uh…” Argh. Because once upon a time, she and Pat had knocked ’em dead. It was why he wore his straight blond hair shoulder-length, when his preference for years had been a buzz cut. “Knock ’em good luck.”

“Gosh, it’s such a treat to see your razor-like mind in action.”

“You wait. ‘Knock ’em good luck’ will be in the national lexicon within the month,” she said, and stifled an eggy, hammy burp.
