The Remedy
“I try to swat it away, but reality crashes in on me and I sit up, looking around the room. I’m a bit hazy, but the drugs have worn off enough for me to focus. I think I called my father an asshole.
I look down and see my phone ringing, and when I turn it over, I find Aaron’s number on the caller ID. It’s about damn time.
“I’m going to murder you,” I say the minute I answer. Aaron chuckles in response, and I’m already grinning and hating him at the same time.
“Dang, girl,” he says, sounding amus...ed. “You knew I was gonna call you back.”
“How could you leave without telling me?” I ask, and then check around when I realize how loudly I’m talking. “Seriously, Aaron.” I lower my voice. “What if Marie found out?”
“Who do you think sent me away?” he asks.
“What?”
“Yeah. I’m on assignment. Something crazy—just like what happened to you. Your dad called me in, said it was an emergency from Arthur Pritchard. Look, I’m in Lake Oswego too.”
