My phone vibrates again

“Giveout into the hall to take the call

“I saw her for a second,” Jack says “She was at a restaurant with so, a little box She put it in her bag”

“Who was the guy?” I ask, ht around the phone

“I don’t know,” Jack says apologetically “I only saw the back of his head He had dark hair”

“Was it Castle?”

“I don’t know They were sitting on the patio I went into the restaurant—I was going to try to get a table so I could get closer and listen in But while I was inside, they left And I haven’t been able to find her again”

“Where’s her car?” I demand

“Well, that’s the weird thing,” I can hear Jack breathing heavy, like he’s walking and talking at the sa lot But Aida’s gone”

FUCK!

My heart is racing, and I feel sick

“Keep looking for her,” I bark into the phone
