His Cat Stole My Underwear, and He Kept Every Pair novel · Chapter 18 of 24
Chapter 18: Co-Signer
Winifred's note was written on the back of a seed catalogue.
It said, in her spidery hand, BRING A PEN AND YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE. HAWTHORNE BANK, MONDAY, TEN O'CLOCK. I TOLD YOU NOTHING.
Teddy read it standing in the doorway of Understory with a watering can in his hand.
"What is it?" said Poppy.
"A threat."
"From who?"
"A woman with a pie."
"Go," said Poppy, and took the watering can.
Magnus had come home on Sunday smelling of diesel and rain, and Teddy had not asked where he'd been.
He had kept the truce about the laundry, and he had kept the second clause too.
He had thought: He'll tell me.
He had thought it a dozen times by Monday.
The bank was a glass room full of ficus trees, and through the front window Teddy could see all of it.
Magnus sat at a desk in his gray wool sweater, with a folder and a bank officer who looked ten.
He sat very straight, with his hands flat on the table.
