Next day. 9:00 A.M.

“Call for Kerri Pyper!” someone shouted.

“I’ll take it!” Kerri shouted, rushing from Dennis’s office to her desk. She pushed her hair back and lifted her receiver to her ear. “Kerri Pyper,” she said.

“How come you’re not home yet?” Brian asked, his speech once again slurred, obviously impaired by alcohol. “I’ve been waiting all afternoon for you. Please come home. I… I need you.”

Kerri’s heart pounded, but her resolve strengthened. “I’m not coming home, Brian. Not ever! I told you last night it’s over, and I meant it. Please don’t call me again.” She hung up and covered her face with shaking hands.

“What’s wrong?” Dennis asked, now standing in the doorway to his office.

Kerri removed her hands from her face, revealing an ashen complexion and a forced smile. “Nothing serious. I just have a bit of a headache. That was Pauline at the Exchange. We got a fill on the platinum offering,” she lied.

Dennis stared suspiciously at Kerri for several seconds, then returned to his office.
