“Where were you?” she asked. “Are you okay?”

I shook my head. “No. Yes. I don’t know. I need to go.”

“Do you want to get a drink?” Martín asked.

I shook my head again. “I’m tired. I think everything just hit me all at once. I need to get home.”

“Okay.” Dee’s frown deepened. “Text me when you get there.”

“I will.” I gave them each a kiss on the cheek and turned around, but stopped walking as something up the hill caught my eye.

“Huh.” That was Dee, behind me. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a light on at the Caliban Manor that clearly from down here.”

“That is odd,” Martín said.

“It is odd,” I said, shivering uncontrollably. “I’ll see you guys tomorrow.”

As I walked away and headed home, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. What had happened to me? Who had I seen? I couldn’t be sure, but I had too many things on my plate to worry about right now. Still, I couldn’t deny that something about that light, that hill, that chair, seemed to call me and I needed to find out why.
