Chapter 26: New Chapters in Life

I laid in bed all night feeling like an idiot for sending that text. So much for not drunk texting. But maybe the new Andy was okay with vulnerability? Time alone would tell. After all, at least I had apologized, right?

The next morning, I checked my phone again. Knowing somehow that there would never be a response from Luke. There was, however, a text from Melody. Bill’s morning nurse:

“Hi Andy, I asked the evening nurse about the package and she said she didn’t know anything about it. Just said that Bill was in bed when she arrived, so she tidied up and left.”

The mystery continued… but I didn’t want to think about that. It was time to put all things Idaho behind me. I set about doing my usual daily routine. Early morning coffee, a quick run on my treadmill, and then off to the market at 6 am. My restaurant didn’t open until noon for lunch but there was much to be done every morning in preparation.
