Hal glared at the clock. Ten, damn it! She should have been here.

He sat up, grabbed the phone, and dialed the front desk. “I need to speak to Faye Moore. She’s a volunteer here.”

The lady told him to hang on. He did so for five freaking minutes before the woman returned. “She’s on the fourth floor. I’ll connect you.”

He let out a deep breath. It hurt less to breathe today.

A floor nurse answered his call. “Just a minute,” she said after he asked for Faye. “She’s passing out books.”

He waited another four or five.

Finally Faye answered. “Hello?” She sounded concerned.

“Faye? It’s Hal.”

She didn’t say anything, so he just jumped headfirst into the conversation. “You said you would come by today.”

“I—I’m not working that floor.”

His grip on the phone tightened. “And you don’t get a break? You couldn’t have stopped by before you started volunteering?”

More silence. “I’m not sure if . . . I think it’s best if . . . They said I shouldn’t see you.”

“I don’t care what they say,” he growled, gruffer than he intended. “I think you at least owe me an explanation.”

“I . . . I guess—” sniffle “—I could drop by during my lunch.”

“I’ll wait for you.” He hung up and glanced at the clock. Patience wasn’t his virtue.
