Chapter 23: Score Your Life
I called my lawyer at 7:13.
She picked up on the fifth ring, with a dog barking somewhere behind her.
"Brooke's dot went gray," I said. "At the house."
"You can't call her. You can't go there."
"I know. I'm not calling her. I'm asking a cop to knock on a door."
There was a long pause.
"That," she said, "is not contact."
I called the Wauwatosa police and gave them the corner and the blue colonial.
At ten an officer called me back.
"I knocked, ma'am. Her fiancé answered. He says she's got a migraine and she's resting upstairs."
"Did you see her?"
"No, ma'am. He was very polite."
He was always very polite.
The arena had a loading tunnel that came out at the end of the floor, behind a black curtain.
Med 14 and Engine 14 were parked there side by side, nose out, ready to roll.
Jesse was already in the back of Med 14, checking the monitor.
He had his old job shirt on, the one with the patch.
"Look at that," he said. "My rig."
"For one day."
"For one day." He handed me a radio. "Channel two. Stay where I can see you."
