Just A Little Series (Parts 1 - 4) - Plot & Excerpts
It hadn’t gone any better than the day before. So, with those two runs behind us, I only had eight hours left in my job-shadowing stint before Luke and I would have to part ways. I dropped by the station at noon to invite Charlie to lunch, but I masked a hidden agenda. I’d hoped to catch Luke as he stopped in before lunch for no particular reason, but did I really need one? As far as I could tell, he was nowhere to be found. His patrol car was missing from the lot, and there was no sign of his eventual return. “Hey there, Pumpkin,” Charlie watched me come in. He leaned against his office doorframe. “To what do I owe the pleasure?” “Hey,” I smiled at him, “you’ve just been working so much lately,” I threw a glance over my shoulder. “I thought maybe you’d like to take a break and have lunch?” “No can do, sweet pea,” he said, seemingly disappointed. With as little time as we’d spent together lately, Charlie probably would’ve enjoyed some one-on-one time.
