From there, Scott quickly ordered a donut to-go. When his order was ready, he left the bakery and headed off to work.

Meanwhile, I had so many questions. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any answers. Talk about a frustrating situation for me. I hated being made to wait.

Thankfully, Scott would finally explain himself at dinner, but that was a number of hours away. My mind would most likely be on fire by then. As it was, my thoughts were already all over the place. I kept thinking about all of the different scenarios that might have led to Scott returning home. Speculation was definitely running rampant.

While my head drifted deep into the clouds, Kristina walked up behind me. I was so busy wrestling with my thoughts that I didn’t even know she was there until she opened her mouth.

“He’s keeping some kind of a secret,” Kristina said. “I think it’s a pretty big one.”

When I heard Kristina’s voice, I almost jumped out of my boots.

I put my hand on my chest as I replied, “Where did you come from?”

“Sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you.”

“It’s okay. I just didn’t hear you coming.”

“That’s pretty surprising. I mean, as an investigator, I thought you pretty much had eyes in the back of your head.”

“So did I. But my instincts failed me right then.”

“This situation with Scott really has you rattled, doesn’t it?” Kristina asked. “Is it because he was being so vague and evasive?”

“Wait a minute. Were you listening to our conversation?”

“Of course, I was.”

I laughed. “At least you’re being honest with me. Although, you don’t have to be so shameless about the fact that you were eavesdropping.”

“Maybe not, but I couldn’t help myself. When two of my friends are talking and one of them behaves strangely, it makes me think.”

“I don’t blame you. Scott’s behavior was pretty bizarre.”

“I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed it.”

“The question is, why was he being so vague?”

“I was hoping that you’d have an answer.”

“I have no clue,” I said.

“Do you have any guesses?”

“Not that I’m willing to share right now.”

“Wow. So, he has you stumped then?”

“For the moment. But according to him, all of my questions will be answered at dinner tonight.”

“I hope that’s the case,” she said. “Be sure to let me know what happens, all right?”

“Of course,” I replied.
