I HAD NEVER BEEN SO glad to hit Friday. I had five clients scheduled, three in the morning and two directly after lunch. I’d be closing up shop at one forty-five, then spending the rest of my time relaxing in the tub with a book, until Cora and Daniel came over to have dinner and pick up Sir Fluffington.

Kali had an early morning midterm, so she was already gone by the time I woke up. I made a quick breakfast, showered, got dressed, scooped up the kitten, and threw open the front door to head to work. I shrieked when I found Kayla on the other side of it.

She grinned. “What’s all the screaming for? Surely you were expecting me?”

“No. No, no, no!” I cried. “I’m not investigating anymore. I’m leaving things up to Arnie. Why are you here?”

She raised her brow. “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize you didn’t want me around. I won’t bother you anymore.” She turned to leave and panic seized me.

“No, wait!” I cried. “No, don’t leave! You can’t leave!”

My breaths were coming in short, rapid bursts. There was no air. How can there be no air?! The room began to spin and I stumbled away from the door, tripped over my own feet, and went down. Hard.

Sir Fluffington yowled and escaped my grasp. In his fright, he fled across my face and his sharp claws left painful scratches.

I barely even noticed. “Don’t leave. Don’t leave. Please, you can’t go,” I sobbed.

Kayla knelt down beside me. “I’m not going anywhere, Mari,” she said soothingly. “It’s going to be okay.”

“Please, K-Kayla,” I cried. “Please don’t go. Don’t leave me.” I reached for her, but of course, my hand hit nothing but empty air. “Please don’t be d-dead.”

She smiled at me. “I’ll always be here for you, Moon. I’ll never leave.”
