Chapter 8 An Awkward Encounter

I walked around town feeling pretty lost, the place had to be just around the corner.



I braced myself with a false smile. Despite doing such things as this in the past, I had no clue what to expect, or if anyone would even be there. The timing was all off, just when I was getting my life back together, I get dragged back into this nonsense.



"This must be it," I muttered to myself. "Here goes nothing."



Step by step I walked up to the door.





A scrawny looking white guy opened the door.



"Um, hi," I started.
"Hello?" He replied back.
"Are you..." I looked down at the package to read the name. "Otis?"



"What are you doing here?" He asked in an evil demeanour.
"Kay, one of Damien's girls, got me to deliver this package to you."



"Why is it open?!" He looked down at the package.
"Oh don't worry, my mom just got a bit nosey," I gave a forced chuckle, trying to lighten the situation, but instead made things more awkward.



"Whatever," he grabbed the package from my hands. "You can go now."





"Okay then, bye!" I said, while he walked back into his house.



Well, that was strange, I thought to myself.



Looking down at my phone I had noticed a bunch of missed calls from Trisha, so I decided to give her a call back.

"Hello?" I pondered in my mind what on earth was going on.



"Where the f**k have you been Jenn?!" Trisha screamed over the phone. "We've been trying to get a hold of you all bloody day!"
"What's going on?" I replied.



"Your mother had a fall, you need to get home right now!"
