Chapter 7

~Em~

It’s become an obsession. At every house, before delivering, Em grabs her phone, staring at the green text-box, willing a reply. She’s texted, ‘Just tell me ur ok’ and ‘Please, Scarlett I’m dying here.’ and ‘where r u?’ But there’s been nothing.

Suddenly it hits her. It has to be something to do with Jed. It can’t be just a coincidence that he suddenly showed up the same night Scarlett disappeared. A shiver crawls up her spine. Scarlett did come close to threatening him. Has he done something to her? Something to shut her up? Em’s heart is racing. She feels herself trembling. She must find out. She has one more delivery.

Abigail has texted to say she’s going to a church dinner with friends and won’t be home until late. Em has time to find Jed and get to the bottom of this. Sheba will be okay for a while. She has a warm bed in the shed, and Abi will have gone home before going out.

Em’s truck’s motor hums as she bounces along a twisting, gravelled driveway. Tall, dark evergreens guard the road in front of her. The muggy warmth, damp mittens on her lap, the feeling of heading into the unknown . . . take her back twenty years to the night that tore her childhood away.
