Chapter Eight

Tony frowned as he stared down at the screen on his cell phone. That was the second time someone had called his cell phone without leaving a message. The caller ID read private number, which meant he couldn't call them back to see what they wanted, or even who they were.

It was very frustrating.

He probably shouldn't play his music so loud when he was working on a car. He'd have a better chance of hearing his phone when it rang. Forgetting to charge it until the battery went dead wasn't helping either.

He poured himself a cup of coffee then sat down behind his desk. The shop didn't open for another hour, and he had a bit of paperwork to do, invoices and ordering supplies, and such, but he wanted to check in on Lex first. He hadn't heard from the guy in a couple of days, and that wasn't normal. They usually talked or texted at least once a day.

Tony dialed Lex's cell then waited for the man to answer. When it went to voicemail, he left a message, telling Lex to call him when he had a chance. He'd try again later.

After hanging up, Tony plugged his cell phone in so he could be sure it was charged then he got to work. He loved owning his own mechanic shop, working on vehicles, and rebuilding motors. He hated the paperwork, and there always seemed to be so much of it.

He used every bit of the hour before the shop opened to get through the stack of invoices on his desk. He didn't even get to ordering the new car parts he needed, which meant he'd have to stay late tonight to do it. No car parts, no car repair.

Once nine o'clock rolled around, Tony set the paperwork aside, turned on the open sign, then got to work on the repairs he needed to make today. He only had a couple of car repairs to complete, which should just take a couple of hours.

Unless something else came in, he'd spend the rest of his time on the 1955 Chevy Station Wagon he was restoring. He knew most classic car people tended to go for hot rods and such, but he wanted a station wagon, so when he eventually had a family, he could still drive them around in style.

He'd found the Chevy in a junkyard, rusted and dented, missing so many parts, he practically had to start from scratch to restore it. He'd been working on it a little at a time for over four years. It was his baby, but he was ready for it to be done.

They day seemed to go pretty okay. Tony finished up his two repair jobs, then had a third show up before he could start on the restoration of the Chevy. By the time he got done with the third car, he only had an hour left before the shop closed. Instead of working on the Chevy, he used that time to put in his orders for car parts.
