Genres: Fiction
He was going to be frantic when he woke up and realized I wasn't there; I was sure of that. But hopefully he'd see the note that I'd taped to the bathroom mirror letting him know that I was fine and feeling better and had forgotten about an early meeting. I explained it all: how I was going to catch a cab to work and call another cab at noon so that I could go pick up my car.
    My hope was that the note would be enough to keep him calm and to keep him from calling me at work, because he wasn'
...t going to find me there--at least not for the next few hours.
    I couldn't make the call from home, so wearing my navy pinstripe corporate suit and the lowest heel pumps I could find in my closet, I trudged down to LaCienega, with the ring and the card in my purse, praying the whole way that the pay phone at the Shell gas station would be working. I was grateful for the early morning breeze, knowing that by nine, the temperature would be above eighty. By the time I walked those five blocks, I had tiny perspiration beads at my temples, but the phone was working and that was all I cared about.
