Hoop Crazy (2001)
“Chapter Two My first phone call had been to Kia. After I finally convinced her that I wasn’t joking around about Jordan leaving she came straight over to my house and we started to make phone calls.
The phone started to ring. One … two … three … “Hello.”
“Hi, this is Nick, can I speak to Tyler?”
“Sorry, he’s not here,” said a woman. I was pretty sure it was his mother. “He’s away at camp.”
“Will he be home soon?”
“Two weeks tomorrow.”
That was no good. “Okay, thanks … goodbye,” I said as I hung... up the phone.
“Any luck?” Kia asked.
“Lots. All bad.”
We’d already made more then a dozen phone calls. Most of the people I’d talked to, but with three I left messages on their answering machines. Maybe one of those people would call back. That was our only hope.
“Any other ideas who I should call?”
“We’ve tried everybody I can think of,” Kia said. “People are all either out, away on vacation, already committed to something or just not interested.”MoreLess
