Matt
I turned, searching the crowd for Lucy. She wasn’t where she had been most of the afternoon, in a little shaded corner, probably feeling out of place. She wasn’t at the buffet either.
When was the last time you saw Lucy?
I thought you were watching her, Tony said. I was keeping an eye on Tina.
I frowned. She’s not where she was a second ago…
I focused on my hearing, listening for her. Then, I heard her voice.
“Excuse me? Could you point me to a bathroom?”
She’s going to the bathroom. Do you still have eyes on Tina?
I haven’t let her out of my sight, he said stiffly. I honestly don’t know how much more I can take this, Matt. I’m pretty sure I was about to lose it in the car.
How much longer do we have to be here?
Not long. Head that way so we can go.
I smiled and excused
