Summary
“You know... not all of them were like that.”
Deacon's brow lifts slightly at her change in tone, and he tilts his head, more curious than teasing. “Oh?”
Jerry hesitates, eyes flicking toward the cracked road ahead. “I had this coworker,” she says carefully, her voice lighter but not quite casual. “The one that read a lot.”
Deacon hums. “Ah. An intellectual.”
She smirks. “He thought he was. Quoted philosophy, smoked too much. Never explained the joke but always laughed first.”
There’s a beat of silence as Deacon’s eyes flick her way—brief, unreadable behind his glasses. His mouth twitches at the corners.
“Yeah?” he says, voice just a little too smooth. “Poor bastard… never stood a chance, did he?”
Jerry doesn’t look at him. But her smile lingers, subtle and real.
“Right person, wrong time, I think,” she murmurs, almost like it wasn’t meant for him to hear.
