A 13 line snippet from NA contemporary hockey romance A Guy and A Girl #Thursday13

Welcome to Thursday 13 - 13 lines from my NA contemporary hockey romance A Guy and A Girl

Scene Set - Hunter meets the coaches wife
Mrs. Henderson stretched her manicured hand for the rink door and sighed. The cycle of recruitment camp, training camp, start of the season, player draft, semifinals and finals was about to begin its eleventh year. As she'd walked down the quiet halls, the background of the empty vendor stands, the large pop machines, rows of teams, managers or all-star pictures faded from her view. She'd seen them numerous times. This was her husband's life. But what she was on a hunt for was her daughter.She paused as she passed the rink, pulled the blue door open and peeked inside. Her daughter and Kendall weren't there, but a young man sat on the edge of the boards. His black t-shirt hugged broad shoulders, and his dark hair was shaggier than seemed to be fashionable these days. She walked down the painted concrete steps and stopped near him. "You trying out for the Vipers?""Yes, ma'am." Hunter jumped and grabbed the edge of the boards.
