She Didn’t Think He’d Show Up
Teresa and Timothy awoke to a dark sky, determined to make their appointment with Burt. She had taken precautions in case he didn’t show, packing snacks and water. He didn’t call or text, confirming her suspicions that he wouldn’t show. Teresa had hoped he would, but as time passed, she knew they were on their own. She sighed and looked at Timothy before preparing herself to take the bus.
