Chapter 14: Mother
"Hi, baby," she said.
The steps were lit up white by the lamps over the doors.
A man in a Diamondbacks cap sat on the low wall, waiting for somebody inside.
Two officers stood by the bike rack with their radios turned down.
My mother didn't care who was watching. She never had.
"How'd you get here so fast?" I asked.
"Duane drove." She tipped her head at the curb. The white Range Rover idled there with its lights off. "He's very supportive."
"He's sitting in my car."
Her smile went thin.
"Let's not do the car again. You did the car at brunch."
"I did it to a detective tonight, too."
She came down one step, so we were eye to eye.
Up close her spray tan had gone patchy at the jaw. She'd been crying at some point. Real tears, maybe.
"Go back in and tell them you made a mistake," she said. "You were upset. You'd had a terrible night. Everybody saw Abram humiliate you."
"Everybody saw him lie."
"Same thing, in a room like that."
The man in the cap had stopped pretending to look at his phone.
