Chapter 88

“I saw that your bike was in the garage so I came in,” Sonya called loudly so that Cam could hear her over the running water. “And I picked up dinner on the way home.” She picked up the two Styrofoam boxes from the floor where she’d set them when she’d seen Cameron curled up on that chair. “Wes made coffee-flavored cheesecake today. It’s topped with a hazelnut sauce and, believe it or not, it’s a big hit at the restaurant.”

Cam laughed as she walked back into the room, drying her hands on a towel. “Maybe we should patent it. We could make millions…all on non-heroin coffee.”

“Don’t laugh. We’ve got to make our money back someway.”

“Have we heard from Alan today?”

Sonya nodded. “He left a message on the machine. I’ve got to call him back in the morning. He sounded good. He said he had good news.” She placed the food boxes on the counter between the kitchen and dining room, then walked around to get dishes from the cabinets.
