Fear and anger darted up her spine. Fear
because of the dangerous look on his face, and
anger because he thought she was lying.  Gunnar,
I didn t read that information anywhere. I saw
those images in my mind. She held his
unwavering gaze, refusing to cower under his
dark expression.  And I resent your implication.
 You saw it in your mind.
Her shackles rose.  Yes. She wasn t surprised.
Gunnar was no different from all the other people
she gave readings to. No one felt comfortable
sitting next to someone who could see things.
And then it hit her. Why would Tyler appear in
her reading?

 What is it?
 I& I was wondering why&  she began slowly,
afraid to tell him what was on her mind. Any
other Tarot reader would have assumed Tyler
appeared because Gunnar would finally find
closure with his pain, but she wasn t just another
Tarot reader. She was a bona fide psychic and the
connection was more daunting. Tyler appeared
because there was something about his death that
wasn t quite right. That didn t fit.  Something s
off. There s information, a discovery, you ll make
about Tyler.
He rubbed the back of his neck with a rough
hand.  What discovery? That he suffered when he
drowned and the ocean carried his body deep into
its depths never to be found again? He paled,
rising unsteadily to his feet.  Thank you for the
reading, but I think I ve had enough. I m not
saying you lied, but I am suggesting somewhere
buried in your subconscious you connected my
need to heal with his favourite toy and food.
 I m certain I ve never read about you and
Tyler, she said quietly.
 Doesn t your sister own a bookstore? The
paparazzi had a field day with me for months and
printed every little detail about my life. It s
possible your sister mentioned it to you in passing
and you buried it in your subconscious.
 No. You have it wrong, Gunnar.

He grabbed his mini-tape recorder and
straightened.  It doesn t matter now. Your reading
shed some light for me and I think I ll go back
upstairs and revise what I wrote, he said.  If I
still need your help and require your assistance for
another reading, will you be available?
She showed her surprise.  You still want me to
help you?
His expression was dry.  Yes.
 Of course I ll help.
 Thank you. He turned on his heel and left.

Chapter Five
he saw him again a couple of hours later when
S
she was straining her pasta. He strode into the
kitchen, running an agitated hand at the back of
his neck.
 Stella, do you know of any stores close by that
sell USB keys? I seem to have misplaced mine.
She chewed her lower lip as a flash of green
popped into her mind.  Maybe in town, but it s a
good thirty minute drive. Another vision danced
before her. Jeans, specifically a pocket in a pair of
jeans.  Er& what colour is your USB key?
 Green. Why do you ask?
 I& I think I saw it near your jeans yesterday. It
was lying on top of them.
 Let me see if it s there. He left.
Stella stirred the tomato sauce and added her
special blend of spices. She heard Gunnar return a
couple of minutes later.
 It wasn t there. About that store. Can you give
me directions?

Stella knew he hadn t checked the pockets
otherwise he would have found it. She stifled a
sigh.  Is it possible you slipped it into the pocket
of your jeans? It would be a shame to drive all that
way for nothing.
He gave her a strange look and disappeared
again. This time he returned holding his green
USB key.  You were right.
She laughed lightly.  That s great. At least you
don t have to drive all the way to town.
 Yes, he commented.
She could tell he was disturbed.
 How did you know where my USB key was?
The jeans I wore yesterday were in a drawer.
 Lucky guess, she replied.
His face turned grim.  Have you been in my
room?
Stella felt cold.  Excuse me?
 I said, he began slowly, folding his arms
across his chest,  have you been in my room?
She bristled.  Are you accusing me of
something?
His hard expression didn t relent.  How else
could you have known where it was?
Stella didn t know if she should feel angry or [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
