Chapter 7

As soon as Laurie (Kendra) saw Thomas and the kids off for their day, she grabbed her cell and dialed Bryan's cell number, which she somehow still remembered.

“Hello?” Bryan said, answering his cell, while lying next to the blonde he had had sex with the night before.

“Yes, Mr. Layton?” Kendra said, pretending to be a pyschologist. “This is Miss Wal----, er, Watson. I got your name from a friend who is very concerned about the direction your life is going.”

“Is this some sort of joke?” Bryan asked, a little miffed. “What do you take me for? An insane idiot?”

“No, Mr. Layton. This friend is concerned and wanted me to speak to you about the choices you've been making lately.”

“My life is great since. . .” Bryan started to say, Kendra's death, but stopped mid-sentence.

“Since when?” Kendra asked.

“Never mind. You wouldn't understand.”

“Why don't we schedule an appointment with me and talk about it?” Kendra said, trying to encourage Bryan.

“I'm not crazy, so whoever told you I was, maybe they are the ones who need to talk to you!” Bryan said, as he abruptly ended the call.

“Well, that didn't go so well!” Kendra thought to herself. She had to find a way to speak to Bryan about his behavior since her “death.”
