"I was so worried Jane. You're never late; this is so unlike you," said
Nancy.
"No, well, I guess everyone has their off days. I'm here now though,
and I’m ready to get down to business now, that is, if you are," replied Jane
as she entered the tiny restaurant.
"Oh, yes, yes, but of course," replied Nancy, a bit flustered at Jane's
abruptness.
The TV was turned on suddenly and the news blared throughout the
establishment.
“It seems the authorities are getting closer to solving the Carmine case.
The police have come upon some new crucial clues in this puzzling and
tragic case. Police are refusing to give any comment on what these clues
may be, but they did reveal that they are being assisted by an anonymous
caller.
Unbeknownst to Nancy, Jane turned a deep shade of purple, increasing as the
report continued.
“Wow, that’s such a fascinating case. I hope they get that
person. Such a horrible tale of events, don’t you-- ,” Nancy
said. She had turned around to see what Jane thought of the whole
situation, but was only faced by an empty chair and an overturned coffee cup.
