Deadly Temptations

Being back in Chicago is a thrilling sensation. I want to do so much but I’m not sure where or how to start. Clara. I wonder if she misses me at all. Last time we spoke she had been very short with me. 


As if Griffin is reading my mind, he shrugs and smiles at me, “So whatcha want to do today?” 


Really, I’m being given an option? Is this for real? I turn to him excitedly. “Seriously? I can pick?!” I ask, bouncing on the balls of my feet. 


He laughs at me and nods, “Yes, as long as it doesn’t get either of us killed or put in harm’s way. I don’t think Anthony will be happy if that happens.” 


Is Clara working today? I turn to look at him. “Can we go see Clara? My old roommate and friend? I haven’t seen her since before all this started,” I motion around me to summarize my current life.
