Following a quick shower and two business calls, I checked my cellphone to see if Jax had reached out of me. Unfortunately, he hadn’t, which baffled me to my core. Thick panic set in by then, and my mind raced with unanswered questions.
Why did he blow me off last night for dinner? Where was he? Why didn’t he answer any of my messages? Where is he now? Why didn’t he reach out to me and leave a message? What the hell is going on in our relationship?
“Breathe,” I whispered to myself inside the kitchen. “He’s safe. You know he is. He’s a busy man, just as Gloria told you last night. I’m sure he has a very good reason why he’s not reaching out to you.”
