The evening chill was starting to get to me as I hid there in the ivy outside Donner's window. I was just about ready to say "fuck it" when I heard something come across my headset.

Donner was calling out.

The phone at the other end only rang three times before a bored female voice answered. "Agency."

"This is Mr. Donner."

"Oh yes sir!" Suddenly the voice was far from bored.

"I believe you know what I like. Please have it delivered as soon as possible."

"Yes sir. I'm sure you'll be very satisfied with…"

"Fine," Donner said, cutting the woman off. "Just make it happen."

Then he hung up.

I usually don't allow myself to make snap decisions about people. Especially ones I haven't really met yet, but all I couldn't help but think that Donner was an asshole.

Putting him in the same boat as Carol Addams.

All of it making me look forward to getting this case over with as soon as I could.

But for right now, I had to get moving.

Something, or someone was on their way over to Donner's and I didn't want to take the chance of accidentally being spotted while lurking outside his home.

Checking up and down the street to make sure I wasn't seen, I cleared the wall, then strolled over to my car where I made myself comfortable.

Might as well hang around to see who was coming.

Who knows, I might get lucky and this could have something to do with the case.

Yeah sure.

Luckily I didn't have long to wait. Within thirty minutes a car pulled up in front of Donner's house. It did seem rather strange that the car didn't pull up into the long driveway.

Instead it pulled to a halt at the curb. The passenger side opened, letting a young lady out. Once she was clear the car pulled further down the street and parked.
