Happy Wednesday! I’ve been able to get some writing done, and Minuet is finally taking off. I’m excited to be working on it now, especially with the deadline coming up.
I’m snipping again from the same chapter I’ve been on for a few weeks, but I’ll probably switch it up soon. I’ve gotten a good chunk done, and I’m now several chapters ahead of this scene.
Amelia and Jomari are still at dinner together. She’s not one to ignore it if there’s a problem, and she can tell there’s more going on than Jomari’s let on.
WIPmath: 3/13/2019 = 3 x 1 x 3 = 9 paragraphs.
Now the big things were out of the way, Jomari picked up his sandwich. Amelia tested her soup, which was cool enough not to burn her mouth. Something still felt off, and she could tell Jomari wasn’t paying much attention to his food. She reached out her free hand and put it on his.
“Tell me for real,” she said. “How are you doing?”
He set his sandwich on the plate and picked at the crust. “I still don’t have a doctor.” He looked up at her. “I’ve been out of my prescription since the end of July.”
Not long, then, but still a problem. Jomari was a casualty of The Lighthouse closing. He’d been going there, and he was supposed to have been referred before aging out of their program—which he’d done over the summer. But The Lighthouse had closed before then, and he’d been one of the few on the waiting list who hadn’t been referred.
“So, no leads on a good primary?”
Jomari withdrew his hand from hers. “No. The problem is, Dr. Joyce knew me. Now not only do I have to find a doctor, but I have to deal with proving again that yes, I really do need to be on T, and yes, I really do need ongoing care specifically fit for me.” He glared at the sandwich instead of meeting Amelia’s gaze.
“I could ask around, if you want,” Amelia offered. “I know a few people who might help out.”
“Yeah?”
“Sure.” She chuckled. “I was about to try to explain to you this really complicated friend circle I’ve got going on these days, thanks to Mack, but it could take a while.”

I really do like Amelia. And I’m glad this is taking off for you
Amelia doesn’t always see herself this way, but she’s a good person. 🙂
Ouch, Jomari’s situation strikes a painfully realistic chord for me. I’m glad he has Amelia trying to help him.
