It was a long week, as I waited for Saturday while working to replace the income lost from the Heavenly contract. Cometkazee and Stiff worked through the new list but didn't find any sign of CK's brother. It was looking like the boy's disappearance might not have been Heavenly-related.
We weren't giving up. In fact, we had plans to start over at the beginning to see what we might have missed.
While Alec and I exchanged text messages when we could, I was breathless from anticipation by the time I pulled into the parking lot. Alec was leaning against his Jeep, waiting for me.
Alec looked even taller and leaner than I remembered. His shoulder-length hair was loose and lifted in the breeze. Alec raised his face to the breeze as if listening to music on the current.
I wondered what Alec would think about skipping the workout and going to a park to watch the sunset. If not today, then maybe another day.
