Peter Gingery had never had a girlfriend in his life; the only girls whose hands he had ever held were probably those of his childhood friends like Jane Sampson, Yvette Quick, and Nina Rice.
And that was during a game.
So, James Black couldn't use what Yvette Quick had told Peter Gingery to explain that falling for someone meant truly wishing to be by her side at all times, to look at her, to hold her, to be with her.
"Don't force-feed me dog food; I'm not into it," Peter Gingery shook his head repeatedly, then said, "I saw Julie Sampson, she was tugging and pulling with a pair of middle-aged people in a corner of the public park, and later I saw her take those middle-aged people to the bank, where it seems she gave them tens of thousands in cash."
