Chapter 29

Caroline

"Have you seen Nash today?"

Jameson sits across from me at the table I've put in the back of the shop. He's busy with something on his phone and completely ignores me as I ask him this question.

"Hello! Earth to Jameson! Have you seen Nash today?"

"Sorry." He puts the phone down, giving me a look like I've interrupted him. What the f*ck ever. "I haven't. He called in, that's all I know."

"Well, I tried calling him and he didn't answer. That doesn't sound like him to me."

"He probably just needs a day off. Sometimes we get on his nerves." He shrugs.

None of it sounds right to me, and maybe it's because of my new love of True Crime podcasts, but I still want to know where he is. It's not like him to completely ignore my texts and phone calls. "Maybe you get on his nerves, but I sure don't."

A smile ghosts across Jameson's face.

"What's that grin for?"

"No reason." He begins to chuckle, looking up at me. "Like I said, maybe we're getting on his nerves."
