It was a bright sunny day, and the sun was in just the right spot to bounce off the windows of the building opposite and straight into my eyes. I considered trying to find another parking spot but decided against it. It was nearly lunch time, and it had been hard enough finding this spot.
I leaned forward on the wheel to get the glare out of my eyes and looked around. I could just make out Aron's police station a little further down the road. It was recessed from the street to make room for the staff parking lot out front.
I got out my phone and typed out the message I'd drafted in my head then hesitated with my finger over the 'send' button.
It has seemed like a good idea when I'd been up on the mountain and even when I'd been buying the takeaway, but now that I was parked down the street from Aron's police station, well, I couldn't help but notice how needy this would make me seem. How needy I knew I was being.
Tap. Tap.
