Chapter 7: The Waiting Room

On Monday morning I went back to work, because a bulldog named Biscuit had an appointment and nobody else knew where the ear drops were.

Lakeview Animal Clinic was full by nine.

A woman with a carrier of kittens, an old man with a beagle, two teenagers holding a hamster in a shoebox.

I sat behind the front desk in my purple scrubs and printed forms, and for forty minutes, I felt almost normal.

Then the bell over the door rang, and Kendall walked in.

She was dressed all in black, with sunglasses pushed up in her blond bob and a garment bag over her arm.

She stopped in the middle of the waiting room, looked around at the animals, and took a long breath.

"Hallie," she said. "We need to talk."

"We're open until six. Do you have a pet?"

"Don't do that."

"Then I can't help you."

The old man with the beagle turned his head to watch.

Kendall lowered her voice.

"Can we go somewhere private?"
