Twenty-Four

Jamie was worried. They should have been back hours ago. She’d called the clinic, thinking maybe they had been delayed, but the office was closed. Calls to Kat’s cell had gone straight to voicemail and, despite leaving several increasingly worried messages, she’d failed to call her back. Something was wrong and she’d waited long enough. Picking up the phone, she dialed Finn’s number. It seemed to ring for ages as she paced up and down in the kitchen, keeping one eye on the window in case Kat’s car suddenly appeared, but at last he picked up.

“Hi, Jamie,” he answered.

“Finn, something’s wrong.” She didn’t waste any time with niceties.

“What do you mean something’s wrong? What’s happened?”

“It’s Kat. She took Daniel to the therapist’s office ages ago and she hasn’t come home.”

There was a silence on the end of the phone. “Have you tried her cell?”

“Of course I’ve tried her cell!” she snapped.

“Okay, look, it’s probably nothing. You know what the cell signal is like around here. She’s probably broken down at the side of the road or got a flat.”

He was right. Of course he was right, Jamie told herself. She was being paranoid. “Okay, you’re right. Well, I’m going to go and retrace her steps, then, and see if I can find her.”

“No, you stay there in case she comes home. I’ll get a couple of the guys to go and do it. You’ll see. She’ll be home in no time. I’ll let you know as soon as we’ve found her, okay?”

Looking out the window with the now silent phone in her hand, Jamie tried to relax but she couldn’t. She wouldn’t. Not until she saw her safe and sound for herself.
