      As the words left her, her cell phone played its familiar tune. She dug into her pocket, curious yet concerned. “I left the number with Grandma. I hope she’s okay.” She stared at it, afraid to answer.

      The melody stopped when she hit the green button. “Hello,” she said, expecting to hear her grandmother’s voice, but who she heard instead gave her a start. “Dad. Where are you?”

      Her stomach tightened as her world crumpled. She turned her head toward Will, unable to believe what she’d just heard.

      She closed her eyes, then opened them again. “My mother fell and broke her hip, jogging.”

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
