Back at the station, Dontay was answering a call and Boone was interrogating his sergeant, who, once again, approved yet another sick leave.

“And what did you say?” Boone asked his second-in-command, as he stood beside Sarge’s desk.

“I told him I hope he feels better,” Sarge said.

“You hope he feels better?” Boone responded angrily. “Are you out of your mind? You tell him to get his skinny ass in here and get in here now! We’re already undermanned. Having a stomach ache is no excuse for not bringing your ass to work.”

“People get sick, Chief.”

“So what? Looking at the lot of you make me sick every day.” His men laughed. “But I come to work. I do my job. You call him back and tell him either he get his ass into this station or don’t bother to show his face around here ever again!”

Dontay hung up the phone at his desk, grabbed the manifest writeup and hurried to Sarge’s desk.

“I can’t tell him that, Chief,” Sarge said.

Boone looked at him as if he was nuts defying him.

“What I mean is,” Sarge said, realizing he might have overstepped his bounds, “we don’t wanna lose him. He’s a good cop.”

“He’s an average cop still on probation. Call him,” Boone ordered.

Dontay handed Sarge the manifest. “What’s the call?” Sarge asked him.

“Car wreck,” Dontay responded. “One car accident from the reports I’m getting. That new dean was the driver.”

Boone was about to continue his argument with Sarge, when he heard what Dontay said. He looked at Dontay. “The new dean?”

Dontay nodded. “Yes, sir. They say she was the driver.”

Boone’s heart began to squeeze. “Is she alright?”

It was an odd question to Dontay. He didn’t even ask the uniforms on scene. “I don’t know, sir. I didn’t think to--”

“Where did it happen?”

“On Bassett Road, over by the Granger Farm. I’m heading over there right now.”

“I’ll take it,” Boone said, moving away from Sarge’s desk. “You get back to work.” And then Boone began walking hurriedly, and then he began running, out of the squad room.

Dontay, shocked, looked at Sarge. The chief had never taken a car wreck call before.

Sarge shook his head. “Don’t look at me. I ain’t never seen nothing like it,” he said, “and I been working for that man a very long time.”
