CONTENT WARNING At noon, I saw Lucy. She came to the truck for her lunch. “Come by after work,” I said. “We need to chat about our civil disturbance.” Giggling, she agreed and took her lunch to a table. I’d already mentioned petitioning the city to fix the Fairway turn, to my cousins, the lawyers.…

“She had contact with the forger. She decided since she was in charge of the talent, she should get more. Greg felt that since he was taking the risk, he should. Arnell maintained that he did the most legwork, and they should give him a bump. They picked and fought over every crumb. Enter Bob.…

“It was a beautiful service.” “You were there?” “Yes.” She left it at that. “I have some questions for you. Or maybe, some information. Can you meet up?” “Where and when?” “Now. The Bump and Grind in the mall?” “I’ll be there in twenty.” “See you there.” Carson was happy to take me. He was…

“I had the guys. Carson and Steve were the most helpful. I’m going to go see him tomorrow. I’ll find out.” “I’ll come with.” “No. Just me. He won’t open up to you. There’s something wrong, something he hasn’t said. I think he’s hiding the truth—not about what he did, about Dionne.” We talked a…

“She went home. She’s staying with Marie and Carson. Their house is all one level, no steps.” Mom fussed and fluffed pillows, folded sheets, tucked in blankets and fluttered around some more. My arm was heavy and I noticed the brace for the first time. My side felt stiff and I knew I’d been taped…

I tried not to laugh, because it hurt like hell. But the irony of that statement was too much. Chuckling and groaning, alternatively, I lay on my side—praying.

Food Truck Hero ~ A Love in the City Romance by Dellani Oakes Part 54
Pointing to myself, I pointed to the door. Connor shook his head. I repeated myself. He shook his head, making a fist. I raised both mine, put my hand on the doorknob and opened it. The agents scattered silently. A woman, whom I sort of recognized, but didn’t know by name, stood to my left.…
