"It'd be a big lump," she added. "Just so she don't feel gypped." Paige went back to flipping through her book, glancing up just in time to see Sam sticking his fingers, which had been god only knows where, into the milk. Before she could open her mouth to say anything about it, though, someone else came in.
She turned in her seat and smiled at Terry, giving her a quick wave before going back to flipping through the book. When Sam addressed the apology, Paige nodded in agreement. As for the offer of cocoa... "As long as you don't mind that Sammy keeps sticking his fingers in it."
Her eyes didn't leave the book until she was done speaking, at which point she looked up at him with a smile.
