His Magic Luna
Peterson said she would call if something changed, so I practically jump on the phone when it rings.
“Hello?”
“Mr. Blackmoon. This is Mrs. Peterson from the book cafe. I’m sorry to inform you, but Maddie quit her job today. She is sadly not coming back, sir.” What the actual fuck!
“Did she give a reason?”
“She is still sick, and she is not sure when she’ll be better. She doesn't want to leave us hanging one man short anymore. Bless her heart.” I close my eyes, my heart feeling heavy. She is gone. Why would she just up and run like that? I’m not that bad. Am I?
