ELIANA
The sun set over the Pacific several hours ago, but I couldn’t pull
myself away from finishing work that’s above my pay grade but
needed to be taken care of regardless. The glint of the diamond on my
finger catches my eye as I turn off my computer for the night. It’s big and
shiny and should fill me with happiness.
I’ve done the impossible, found a man who wants to tie himself to me
for life, but I just feel hollow. He asked me in a huge public spectacle on a
yacht his office rented to celebrate being the highest earning real estate
group in the country. It put me on the spot, and I couldn’t have said no at
that moment. In the weeks that have passed, my unease has only grown.
It’s why I still live with Amber, my best friend from college, instead of
moving into his house. Luckily for me, he dedicates most of his time to his
career, even more than I do. I spin my chair to look out the narrow window
my office has, a clear view of the freeway stretching for miles, red taillights
like a string of ants marching off into the night.
My stomach drops as my phone rings, worry about Brandon calling to
ask me to come over fills me immediately. Being engaged shouldn’t feel
like this. At least I don’t think it should.
A smile lifts my lips when I see Janey’s name on the screen. She’s a
friend from the town my grandparents live in out in Colorado. I hurriedly
hit the accept button.
“Hey,” I say with a smile in my voice. “Long time no talk.” Not that I’m
upset about it. She just had a baby a couple months ago; it makes sense that
we don’t speak as much as usual.
There’s a long pause before she finally speaks. “Hi.” There’s sadness
and pain in her voice, it’s palpable even through the line.
“What’s wrong?”
“I have bad news.” Her voice breaks, causing panic to swell within me.
“Are you alone?”
“Yes. I’m still at work. What’s wrong?”
“I’m so sorry.” I hear her deep breath through the phone. “Jo’s dead.”
My eyes burn, and blood roars in my ears. “She can’t be,” I say past the
lump in my throat. “I just talked to her Sunday night.”
“I’m so sorry.”
“Stop apologizing and tell me this isn’t real.” I start gathering my
belongings.
“It is real. They found her today out by one of the pastures.”
“Why didn’t Grandpa call me? Is he okay?”
Another long pause.
“Tell me,” I yell, louder than I meant to, but the panic rising inside me
won’t settle.
“He’s okay. You should just get here as soon as possible. He’s going to
need you.”
“I’ll be on the first flight.”
“Okay, let me know your flight information, and I’ll come pick you up.”
“Thank you. I love you.”
“I love you, too. Be safe.”
