Chapter Twenty-Two

By the time I left work I was antsy. An irritation under my skin. I knew I had to deal with Simon but I couldn’t concentrate, couldn’t focus. A feeling like I was missing something. A nagging fear that breaking into the Catterson house was just what Simon wanted me to do. I was hungry and I needed a drink.

I went to Stingray’s. I hadn’t spoken to Mary since last night. It all seemed so long ago now.

We’d ended the night on uncertain terms. Maybe that wasn’t surprising. She’d given me the opportunity to open up and I’d shut her down. Left in a panic, left things hanging and unsaid. I figured I’d ask her if we could talk. Maybe offer to buy her a drink. Non-alcoholic, of course.

But when I pushed open the door and entered the bar I knew she wasn’t working. It was the music that did it. Heavy metal, a thudding bass and a man screaming.

I turned and left.
