Excerpt
Two:
Long ago, I’d explained my weird glimpses to one of the
Raven’s victims. Instead of believing me, my friend grew increasingly sarcastic
about my confession. He mocked me. I didn’t blame him. I’m not sure I would’ve
believed me, either. In the end, his sarcasm killed him.
Laughing and gesturing like a mad bird to make fun of my premonitions,
he’d lost control of his bicycle and collided with a garbage truck just as it
was lowering its load.
No, I wasn’t about to tell Janice about her Raven. I’d keep
watch. Stay sharp. Once the bird made an appearance, he wouldn’t leave until
his prey was dead. Accidentally or with malice aforethought.
The next song, movie quote, television commercial, or
anything ominous could clue me in on how to save her. At least I could give it
a shot. If I didn’t keep a constant eye on Janice, her death would be on my
head.
“Add it to your list.”
It startled me. The Raven hadn’t spoken to me before. I was
really losing it.
Janice leaned across the table and tapped my wrist. “Earth
to Penny,” she said.
“Huh?”
She smiled. “Still dazed from your near-death experience? I
would be.” She wiped her face and placed her napkin on her dish. “I was just
asking if, along with cleaning and packing, could you add reordering to your
list?”
Relief flooded over me. Was it strange that I was happy I
was only slightly crazy and not hearing voices?
“Sure,” I answered.
Janice flagged down Betty Fae and handled the check. I
slipped the only cash I had on me under my coffee cup as a tip for dealing with
my momentary freakout.
As Janice bundled up, Betty Fae hit the jukebox remote. I
held my breath as it hummed to life.
“Please play something nice,” I whispered to myself.
No dice. Last Kiss started playing.
“Great song! But not breakfast music,” Janice said, tossing
a tip in the jar next to the register.
Betty Fae frowned and pushed another button. The jukebox
shuffled. Leader of the Pack blasted right at its climax.
My stomach dropped. Unless I could keep her away from all
traffic and roads, Janice was doomed.
