The highway stretched, and every so often a truck zoomed past, heading in
the opposite direction, taking much more of the narrow road than it should.
From time to time, a reckless driver tried to overtake, but even with no
oncoming vehicles, there was the risk of a kangaroo, wallaby or even a deer
running across the road. Harper would have preferred to take the route
during the day, but the week’s events had not unfolded as she’d planned. If
she had it her way, she wouldn’t be driving down the New England
Highway in the first place.
She vowed long ago that she wasn’t going to
come back. Not unless she had to; not unless someone died. Had she not
gotten the call from her brother, who insisted she make the journey, she
would have found an excuse not to come. He told her there were things that
needed discussing, family matters that couldn’t be talked about on the
phone or via a Zoom meeting, and he emphasised that Aunt Georgia was
not going to accept ‘no’ for an answer, not this time. He told her to leave
her fancy suits behind. As if she had too many of those these days. Sure,
when she’d first left, she had a wardrobe full, and places to wear them too.
The past few months she’d gone out less and less, instead opting to commit
herself to work. But that was another life. One that she’d moved on from
too. Neither her aunt or brother could have known that, nor could have any
other member of her family. She hadn’t spoken to some of them in almost
two years, hadn’t seen them in at least five, or maybe it was six. It didn’t
really matter, anyway; it was a long time ago. The call had come at a
convenient time, though.
She was planning to disappear for a few days, so
agreeing to drive out to the country became all the easier. Now, as she
stared in the rear-view mirror, the occasional headlights from behind put her
on edge. Ever since leaving the city, she’d paid attention to trailing cars, but
so far, her suspicions had been unwarranted. While she hadn’t informed
anyone of her plans, she preferred to remain vigilant.
The town lights glowed in the distance. She passed the exit into
Stanthorpe and kept heading south. She doubted there’d be a place to stay
tonight. She should have booked in advance, or at least called in to
forewarn them. But she didn’t want to be a burden, and she didn’t want
anyone waiting up for her. That would mean talking, questions, reminiscing
of sorts. She didn’t want any of that either. What could be so important that
they couldn’t do it over Zoom or WhatsApp like normal people?
Harper glanced at her phone. Only one bar of reception thanks to her
choice of phone providers. Technically, she was still working, and she
needed to stay connected. This was going to be a nightmare, or potentially
an excuse to keep her stay to a minimum. These days she only needed an
