Chapter 152

Would April applaud this change in behaviour? Chances were she’d laugh if she knew how awkward…

Dean stopped, spinning around. A woman bumped into him and by the time he’d apologised and looked up…Nothing. No one he knew. Not April, yet he swore he’d seen her a moment before, as if he’d conjured her up. If he hallucinated, no doubt his psyche chose the worst possible apparition with which to plague him.

He carried on walking.

No reason for his surprise. April stirred her cauldron as always, only this time through Brian. More fool him for thinking they’d moved on.

Dean waited for the light to change and then peered both ways before crossing the road. A few mindless seconds ticked on, distracted by the mundane, all too soon gone. Another headache bullied its way to the front of his skull.
