One hour later, Darica was driving into a familiar and yet not-so-familiar parking lot, since she knew about it but didn't bother to stop there. Without anything she needed at the complex, why bother to stop there?
'I see him!' as she drove looking for parking, she spotted a familiar person and unknowingly found herself smiling.
An hour before, she received a call from Cadell instead of Duke, whom she was expecting to receive a call from.
After not getting a single text from him, Darica couldn't help but wonder what was going on with him. It was something that he had never done before, so she was a bit shaken.
However, the anticipation of seeing her car and meeting with Cade made it less obvious, though her heart sort of ached because of that.
Earlier on the call with Cadell, she had told the man about the other chore she had to finish, and he volunteered to meet her there.
