Chapter 23: Cass Takes the Mic

The tavern owner fired Cass on Tuesday, at the end of her shift, in front of the regulars.

"I can't have this in my bar," he said. "I've got a liquor license. The Foundation's lawyer called me twice."

"I've worked here six years," Cass said.

"I know."

"I covered your Christmas Eve," Cass said.

"I know, kid. I'm sorry."

She took off her apron, folded it, and laid it on the bar.

Then she took the jar of tip money off the shelf, because it was hers, and walked out into the cold.

I was waiting by the hatchback, leaning on the hood.

She looked at me and said, "That took four minutes."

"Do you want to go to Stefan's and scream at a boat?"

"I want to go somewhere and do something with this."

She held up her phone.

The screen showed the video from the gala, the one she'd posted that night, with its title in white letters: THE NUMBER.
