Chapter 37
I could see the sun starting its decent from the sky and again I tried to call Lucy’s number, which still kept on going over to voicemail. It had been nine hours since she stormed out on me, and still I could not reach her. Sure, I could call Sam but he was the last person I actually wanted to speak to. Not just that, but Michael’s words were still fresh in my mind. There was no way I was looking to Sam. I was doing this by myself.
“We’re closing in an hour,” Timothy said as he brought me probably my tenth cup of coffee for the day. I was pretty sure that if this continued I would be bleeding coffee soon.
“Yeah well, I still can’t get hold of my friend. Do you know of a motel nearby?” I asked him, hoping for someone to just guide me to a place where I could be safe for the night. Sure, I could try and go back to Llaluna’s, but I just wasn’t ready to confront her a second time in one day. Maybe if I gave her until tomorrow she would have cooled down by then.
