Chapter Thirty-one

Monday morning brings mixed emotions with it. I walk into Jack’s with the strangest desire to call Francine and tell her that I can’t do the musical. I haven’t even opened the envelope that contains the script. Michael and I spent last night on the phone, so now my eyes are straining to stay open as I sit at the table and stare at a plate of food I have no desire to eat. To make matters worse, one of the cooks casually mentions that we’re going to be shorthanded today for lunch, so I know that in less than five minutes, Jack will ask me to do both shifts.

As if on cue, he walks into the back and takes a seat.

Right on time.

“I can tell you’re tired, kid, but I need you today.”

“I heard.”

He reaches over, pats my hand, and then heads into the refrigerator to pull out the bacon.

As I pour my coffee, I can’t help but think about Michael and David. I know my not getting any sleep doesn’t come close to what they’re going through by making the funeral arrangements today. So I force a smile on my face as I put on my apron and name tag.
