Leanne was baffled, “What are you talking about?”

Curtis replied with a smirk, “It’s dark out, perfect time for some spooky stories.”

Leanne was speechless.

As Leanne got into her car, she glanced in the rearview mirror to see Curtis standing in the warm, yellow glow of the porch light. She watched his figure until she turned the corner and he was out of sight.

The real estate agency had been making swift progress. The interested buyer was eager and hoped to meet with her. Leanne managed to carve out some time for the meeting.

The rendezvous was set at the agency’s office. The agent, a man in his forties with a lean build and a face that was almost too eager to please, was waiting at the door.

As soon as Leanne’s car pulled up, he rushed to open her door, “The clients have been waiting for you, Ms. Castillo. Right this way.”

Leanne was led upstairs to a private meeting room where a couple was seated, their

backs to them. The woman, from just her silhouette, appeared young and attractive, her figure accentuated by a tight-fitting dress. In contrast, the man next to her seemed a bit on the shorter, plumper side.

Hearing their approach, the woman turned and eagerly linked arms with Leanne, “Oh, Mrs. Richardson, we meet again.”

Leanne frowned slightly.

“It’s Lisa, remember? We met at that gala earlier this year.”

It was the remembering that made Leanne furrow her brow. They weren’t close enough to warrant such familiarity.
