Chapter 7

Kelsey

She woke up alone and fuzzy-headed the next morning with a dim recollection of Chopper giving her a kiss and walking out the door. Kelsey ran her tongue over her teeth, blinking the sleep from her eyes. She’d taken a sleeping pill after he left, because she knew that otherwise her restless thoughts would keep her awake for hours, and now she felt as though she’d just come out of heavy sedation. It reminded her of the short, awful time she had spent in the hospital, what seemed like eons ago, now. Almost by reflex, she put her hands on her belly. It was flat, as always. Kelsey looked down at her fingers overlapping each other and sighed deeply. She’d come a long way since then, but the pain still found ways to make itself known, lurking in the depths of her mind and heart.

Kelsey shook her head briskly and reached over to the nightstand for her phone. Ten o’clock in the morning, two missed calls—one from Brittany, and one from a number she didn’t recognize. Each had left a voicemail. She listened to Brittany’s first, hoping the girl’s infectious enthusiasm would clear her foggy brain.

“Hi, Kelsey! It’s Brittany. I’m calling to let you know that Detective Wilde received permission from the chief this morning to reopen Hannah’s case file! Obviously, this is very exciting, and he’s extremely dedicated to the cause, but there’s a lot of work to be done, so he’ll be calling you soon to fill you in on some details. Like I said before, he may need you to come in again and speak with him, or he may need you to resubmit some things.” She paused, as if she wanted to say something else but thought better of it. “Don’t worry, he’s really nice. Okay? Call me if you need anything or have any questions. I should be here all day.” The voicemail ended, and Kelsey sat still for a moment, still holding the phone to her ear.

Then, she started the next message, before she could give herself time to get lost in thought. A man’s voice, practiced and professional, flowed into her ear. “Hi, this is Detective Emmett Wilde, calling for Kelsey Jones? I wanted to notify you that we are reopening the investigation into your sister Hannah’s murder, effective this morning.”

He cleared his throat. “I’m interested in following up with you for a secondary interview, just to make sure the information in the file is accurate. As I’m sure you understand, it’s extremely important for us to make sure everything is in order going forward. Please feel free to call back whenever is convenient for you. I’ll be here.” He wrapped up with his contact number, which Kelsey wrote down on a scrap of paper from her nightstand drawer. She looked at it for a long time. This moment was one that had shaped her life for months, and almost led her to ruin. But now that it was finally here, she found herself hesitating to move forward.
