her head. “You sound like you know something about it.”
“My mother spent the last year of her life on alternative healing. I got the tour along with her.”
“And?” she pressed. “You don’t seem to be dismissive of it, even though she died.”
He lifted his hands, trying to find a way to express his thoughts. “I didn’t expect a cure, and I don’t think she did either. And I have my own health issues that are making me think about alternative methods lately.” He had, in fact, spent half his afternoon searching the internet for some sort of blood pressure treatment. Something that a hospital couldn’t offer.
Her lips curved in a soft smile. “An open mind. I like that.”
“Yeah,” he said slowly. “You know, I’m beginning to think the universe does work in mysterious ways.” Because right here, right in front of him might be the answer to his prayers. But just in case he was wrong, he tried to think logically about it. He started tallying up facts in his brain.
His blood pressure was out of control. So out of control, he might have to quit his job.
He’d exhausted all the options that modern medicine could offer.
She was a doctor, but was serious about alternative methods and sounded like she took a scientific approach.
He needed to find a cure. Maybe she had the answer.
“So,” he said, feigning casualness, “find any therapies that work?”
She nodded, the most confident movement she’d made during the entire discussion. “I think so, yes.”
“Okay then,” he said, coming to a quick decision. “I’m game. Let’s do it.”
She blinked, obviously not following him. He didn’t blame her. It’s not like he had explained where his brain had taken him.
He smiled. “You’re a former doctor doing scientific research into energy healing.”
She nodded.
“Well, I’m a patient who’s looking for some nonstandard treatments. For high blood pressure. Really high blood pressure.”
She gaped at him. “What?”
“I want to hire you, Amber. For the magical mystery tour of energy healing. I’ll do whatever you want, however you want, so long as I don’t have to quit my job to do it.”
