I bypassed the guys and bee–lined it to my office. I sat in my chair as I waited for the arcane

computer to load, I’d have to have Misty suggest an updated system. My mind swam in those

mear moments but it was long enough for my thoughts to go to Carter. I was infuriated at

him, yet at the same time I missed him so terribly I wanted to scream. Two tears fell and as I

swiped them away the office door opened. Byron caught me but I tried to cover by clearing my

throat and blinking.

“Ya ok Briar?” he asked, stuck like a deer in the headlights on the threshold. It was as if every

neuron in him was suddenly fixated on me.

I rubbed my eyes.

“Just something in my eyes,” I lied. His eyes narrowed, he wasn’t buying what I was trying to

sell him.

“Listen,” he said as he closed the door behind him. “If you’re in some kind of trouble, the boys

and I have your back, whatever you need.”

I cleared my throat.

“I’m not in any more trouble than any other day, but I do think we need to look into hiring

someone to take over services. I have some personal things to attend to and now that we are

caught up we have the funds to bring someone in to do the bit of help I’ve been doing. You

guys know the people here and I respect that you may have a few options that would be

agreeable to you all. Of course I want to interview and ensure I agree with you guys but at the

end of the day whomever it is has to work for all of us. This way I can work from home and do

the scheduling, ordering and marketing. If done right I think we can exceed the business this

place had before Jake passed.” I said and I was 100% bullshitting myself through this

conversation.
