This bit follows from last week—Clyota is interrupted from her personal angst by a vidcall, but she can’t exactly call it being “saved by the beep”:
“Cly, what the hell is going on? All the Pressmen in the world are outside our house, yelping for you!” On screen, I could see the outrage on Cristina’s face and little Thomas leaning against his mother, thumb in mouth, big eyes worried.
I thought of all the flagged messages I’d just deleted—talk about missing a clue. “What do they want?”
“Mostly they’re just screaming your name, and I’m sure as hell not asking them for details.”

Uh-oh, this doesn’t sound good!
No . . . No, it really won’t be.
I thought the dynamic between Cly and Cristina was so realistic. It made Cly even more likable and she needed Cristina. This six is great. Glad you chose this snapshot.
Uh-oh is right! Great six, and can’t wait for more. 🙂
Thanks, Jessica—loved the towel moment in your six today!
I really want to know why they want her. great six!
Thanks, Wendy!
I’m getting scared.
No librarians were harmed in the writing of this story.
Well . . . not permanently harmed.
Well . . . not all of them.
Oh no, this can’t be good! Great description too, I felt like I could see the vidcall and the little boy!
I think your fop-parade was more fun, Angela, but thank you! 😀
Sounds like trouble is ahead. I want to know more!
Thanks, Carrie! I can’t wait to see where your six are going—your descriptions are amazing (and so are the names)
Note to self: Do not delete messages without reading them first.
Unless it’s a message from CuteChik47 asking in the subject line if you want to hook up with a bored MILF—those are probably safe to pitch without opening.
I hope . . .
