I stand in the corner and sharpen my blade as Daphne floats around in the kitchen. She pours herself another cup of coffee.

She’s going to be a jittery mess if she doesn’t stop with the caffeine. I had the goth woman at the cafe earlier pour an extra shot of espresso in her latte. Everyone has their tic when they are nervous. Me, I like to sharpen my knives. Daphne, she likes to drink caffeine until her eyes pop from her head.

We all can’t be perfect.

She stares at the table while pouring an ungodly amount of sugar into it.

“Daphne?” the woman prods. Kendra Tatum is one of the best lawyers in New Orleans. “Are you okay?”

“Hmm? What? Yeah, I’m fine. I’m great, actually. Just great. No big deal,” she rambles, which has me smiling on the inside. She stirs her coffee and goes to sit down, then remembers the toy inside her, and decides to stand again. “I think I’ll stay right here.”

The high-pitched screech of metal sliding down against metal comes from my knife as I sharpen it and Kendra looks over her shoulder, then around the kitchen to see where the noise is coming from.

She can’t see me.

I love making people aware of their surroundings.

Kendra eyes her skeptically before moving on and pulling out her case file for Daphne and the charges she is pursuing against Heath.

Oh man, I swear I’m going to get my hands on him. And when I do… he’s going to regret every single day he has ever lived.

“This will be quick. I wanted to see you in person because the information is too important to discuss over the phone,” Kendra informs her, not once taking her eyes off the paperwork in front of her.

Hemlock strolls into the kitchen next and grabs a water from the fridge, breathing heavily with sweat drenching his clothes. “Fuck, it’s hot today,” he comments to me.

He always knows when I’m around. I don’t like it.

He ruined my undercover… ness.

“That’s what you get for woodworking in a hundred-degree weather.”

Hemlock mocks me with a huge eye roll before taking a sip of his drink.

“What kind of work do you do? I’m actually looking for a new vanity,” Kendra asks, taking her black glasses off and setting them on the counter.

Hemlock swivels his head around and sputters water from his mouth. It drips down his chin. “Um,” he coughs into his hand, and I have to pinch my lips together to stop myself from laughing. He wipes his lips on his sweaty shirt, which has wood chips and sawdust clinging to it. “Just… wooden pieces of furniture. I need to go.” Hemlock keeps his head down and runs smack into a wall.

“Oh my gosh, are you okay?” she asks, rushing to his aid.

“Just a wall in my way.” He tries to walk around and runs into it once more before stepping aside. “It’s just the heat. I’m fine. Have a great day.” He bows.

He bows!

See, if I weren’t in a corner, I wouldn’t be able to witness this moment from all angles.
