Break My Fall (No Limits)
“The next week was relatively uneventful, filled mostly with work and low-key evenings with Drew. We didn’t talk at all about my departure day approaching. That was probably for the best. There was no way to work around it, and not bringing it up meant less stress on the time we still had together.
I got to work just before noon one day and found Rick and Marla there. They’d been out of town for the better part of a week. Chad and Warren were leaving for lunch. I asked where Rebecca was.
... “Called in sick,” Rick said. “That’s unlike her.”
“Did she say what was wrong?”
Marla shook her head. “No. I didn’t get a chance to ask. She left a voicemail around six-thirty this morning.”
Rick was right—it was extremely unlike Rebecca to call in sick. I had a feeling she would have called me if she’d gotten into some kind of trouble, and since she hadn’t, I was pretty sure she was okay.MoreLess
