The thought of being with Gilbert Keller on a date was exhilarating.
They were having dinner at a Japanese restaurant called Otani Gardens, five miles from the hospital.
Dr. Keller knew that he was taking a risk. At any moment, Toni or Alette could take over.
He had been warned. It’s more important that Ashley learns to trust me so that I can help her.
“It’s funny, Gilbert,” Ashley said, looking around the crowded restaurant. “What is?”
“These people don’t look any different from the people at the hospital. They aren’t really different, Ashley.”
I’m sure they all have problems. The only difference is the people at the hospital aren’t able to cope with them as well.
I didn’t know I had any problems until—Well, you know.” “Do you know why, Ashley? Because you buried them.
You couldn’t face what happened to you, so you built the fences in your mind and shut the bad things away.
To one degree or another, a lot of people do that.He deliberately changed the subject. “How’s your steak?”
“Delicious, thank you.” From then on, Ashley and Dr. Keller had meals away from the hospital once a week.
They had lunch at an excellent little Italian restaurant called Banducci’s and dinners at The Palm, Eveleene’s and The Gumbo Pot.
