Will: Are you there?
Will: Where should we meet?
Will: Quincy?
There it was a twenty-minute gap before he’d written again.
Will: Are you okay?
Will: Quincy, can you at least send a message saying you’re okay? I’m beginning to worry here.
Another twenty-minute gap.
Will: I went through your friends list, but I don’t know who to contact. Please tell me you’re okay.
Will: Okay, I’ve changed out of my good clothes, and I’ll start painting my kitchen cupboards, but I have the phone with me. Let me know the minute you can that you’re safe.
A thirty-minute gap followed.
Will: Quincy? I’m getting really worried here. I’m gonna call some hospitals, but I don’t know your social security number, so I doubt they’ll give me any information.
Twenty-five minutes later.
