The Longest Line

Summary

My father-in-law, Arthur, was the rightful heir to the Mosby family fortune.

When he insisted on marrying, Judith, my mother-in-law, who ran a small neighborhood restaurant, everyone said he had lost his mind.

One morning over breakfast, Arthur suggested that we stop by Judith's restaurant.

"Judith came home yesterday with a burn on her hand." Concern flashed in his eyes. "She refused to tell me what happened."

The tenderness between them warmed my heart, so I immediately agreed to take him there.

But while we were waiting in line, a broad-shouldered man suddenly shoved Arthur hard.
