Chapter Nine

I wanted to meet the lady who made the meatloaf I was devouring. Strange breakfast food but I’d seen it sitting in Josie’s fridge and it had called my name.

“Hey, that’s my lunch you’re eating,” said Josie. She wore a bathrobe and a towel wrapped around her freshly washed hair and I almost wanted to take her upstairs and make love to her.

“You make this?” I asked.

“No, my grandmother.”

“Then I think she’s my mate. Any woman who can make ground beef taste like this is my forever sort of girl.”

“Believe me you wouldn’t like her. She’s feisty and tells it like it is.”

“Doesn’t that sound familiar. How about I leave this last little piece and you can stick it between two slices of bread.”

“I guess I’ll have to now. Haven’t you heard of cereal or yogurt?”

“Sure I’ve heard of it but I just don’t like either of them.”

I leaned back on the countertop. So you think I’ll be safe hiding out here for the day while you’re at work?”

“This would be the last place they’d look for you.” She broke off a banana from the bunch that sat in a bowl and put it in her lunch bag.

“You think you can handle things. I mean you not going to give in under pressure?”

“I have everything under control, and while I’m gone I want you to do some research on trying to figure out where my father was taken.”

That I was definitely going to do. She deserved to know where he was, if he was alive, and maybe they could finally meet.

“Okay, I’m just going to dry my hair, get dressed and I’m out of here so don’t go getting yourself in any trouble.”

I watched the news while Josie finished getting ready for work. I was the third topic of the day and the fact that so far I hadn’t been caught or even seen.

“See you around six,” called Josie.

“See ya,” I called back.

I had to make some calls to see if anyone had any information about her dad but I had to make sure they weren’t intercepting any of the signals. I turned to the sports channel and decided to make myself a coffee. I hadn’t realized half the day had gone and I’d been stuck in front of the TV watching all sorts of terrible reality shows that had sucked me in. I was about to get up and find something to eat when I heard a key going into the lock of the front door. It couldn’t be Josie because she’d used the garage service entry door.

Whoever it was, was already in the hallway because I heard two floorboards squeak.

I was about to hide in the pantry when something heavy hit me in the crotch and I realized an older woman had caught me off guard with an umbrella for a weapon.

“Shit, that hurt,” I said doubling over.

“It was supposed to.”

I looked up at her.

“You’re him.”

Oh shit, she was going to turn me in.

“If you mean the fugitive yes, I’m Liam Quinn, so pleased to meet you.
