I walked across the street to Rita’s Cafe, ordered a cappuccino, checked my phone, and left a message for Charlie.
I decided to revisit the last chapter of Charlie’s manuscript. He was using the computer yesterday and had asked me for the password to access the files. Old Mr. Serious actually laughed when I told him the password “DadsCutless” a play on “Pa’sSword.”
I scrolled through to the last chapter and saw he had added a few extra paragraphs. My jaw dropped …. Just then the phone rang.
