The call came just as I was leaving practice.

"Mr. Saunders?"

"Yeah, this is him." I balanced my duffel on my shoulder, pushing open the car door.

"This is Officer Ruiz with the Austin PD. We have a woman in custody, Vivien, who listed you as her emergency contact."

"She was picked up outside a coffee shop after causing a scene. Barista called it in-said she was aggressively confronting a blonde woman, screaming at her." The officer

hesitated. "She's requesting that you come down to the station.'

I clenched my jaw so tight I thought my teeth might crack.

"What does she want from me?"

"She's insisting that you validate her story. That she's not crazy."

I scrubbed a hand down my face. "Jesus Christ."
