Abby walked into her apartment and threw her keys on the table. She flipped on the stove and started boiling water and thereafter stumbled to the couch. Abby was tired, very tired after running around town trying to get Joyce a bed at athis woman’s shelter outside town. It was getting late, the time was almost 9pm and if she didn’t hurry she was going to be very late meeting Luka.
Taking off her shoes and socks, she walked barefoot into her bathroom and began running a shower. With Luka Kovac still firmly on her mind, she began stripping out of her clothes. She removed the clip from her hair and let its long tresses tumble down her back, and stepped into the hot shower. She let the water run down her back for a minute then turned and reached for the bar of soap, she began to wash the residue of her work day from her body. She stood for a long period of time under the running water in an attempt to relax, but relaxation never came.
*** Meanwhile Luka was strolling around his apartment, a bit nervous. He had ordered in a lot of Thai food from this very expensive restaurant and it should arrive at any moment. While waiting he had been setting the table. He’d set the table with his finest china given by his mother. He’d also been lighting a couple of candles and was now just waiting aguishly.
*** The sound of the phone’s ringing was barely audible over the radio’s music. Sticking her head out of the shower’s door Abby listened as the machine picked up.
“Hey Abby? This is Joyce?” She sighed, “Well I guess you’re not home yet since you’re not answering.” She waited a second then said, “Okay… I guess I’ll try you lat…”
“No! Wait. Joyce?” The phone fumbled out of her wet fingers and made a loud clunking noise as it hit the floor.
“Oh, so you are home?” Joyce chuckled.
“Hey…hi…” she held the phone up to her ear and quickly realized it was upside-down. “Jeeeeeeeez,” Abby said, quickly losing patience with herself. “Joyce, still there?”
“Yeah. Still here,” she mumbled into the phone.
“Is everything alright?” Abby asked, putting on her silky robe.
“Yeah, the staff are really nice here, and I’ve meet a lot of women in the same situation as me, but I can’t help it, I’m still terrified he’ll find me.”
“There is no way he can find out where you are. As long as you haven’t told anybody?” Abby said drying here hair.
“No, the only ones that knows are you and my mother, but neither of you are gonna tell him, right?” Joyce said.
“Off course not, your secret safe with me, I promise..” Abby was interrupted by a knock at the door.
“There’s someone at the door so I’ll talk to you later, okay?” Abby said reaching for the door.
*** Luka sat on his couch staring straight ahead, lost in thought. Once in a while he bothered to turn his head to look at the clock. The time was ticking away and the food that was delivered a while ago was now turning cold, and there was still no Abby to be seen. She said she’d turn up, where is she? Luka thought squirming on the couch. Luka reached for his phone dialling Abby’s number; but the line was busy. Well if she’s home why hasn’t she bothered to show up yet? Maybe she forgot, maybe she has other more important things to attend to, then spending time with her depressed ex boyfriend. I mean it’s good that she doesn’t feel obligated to come because I lost my father, I don’t want pity from her anyway.
The more Lukas thoughts were spinning the more upset he got, he wasn’t really angry but very insecure and disappointed. His phone started ringing and interrupted his thoughts. Its probably Abby, phoning to say she’s running late. I don’t understand why my relationship with Abby always stresses me out, Luka thought picking up the phone.
“Hi, Luka, it’s Jerry”, Jerry said in a shrill tone.
“What do you want Jerry?”, Luka asked annoyed.
“Carter had to leave, something about his grandmother, we need you” Jerry continued.
“I’ll be there” Luka said and hang up the phone.
*** A load whistling sound. The taste of iron. The world was spinning. An odd pressure to the chest.
Suddenly Abby regained focus on her surroundings. She opened her eyes only to discover that a man was leaning over her. She was now looking into two ice-cold blue eyes: -Brian!
