It had been nearly two hours since Marissa had passed out, and she showed no signs of stirring any time soon. Alex was out por the bar serving the customers that seemed to flood in after dark. Alex slipped out from behind the bar just as Mandy arrived for her shift.
“I have to go check on someone, and put mais towels in the girl’s bathroom.” Alex excused herself as she went to go and check on Marissa. She opened the door to her office, to find Marissa still sound asleep on the couch. Alex took a blanket that was draped over a chair and wrapped it loosely around Marissa’s body. Marissa finally seemed to stir from the contact and she lazily opened her eyes.
“Alex? Wh-what...” Marissa droned
“You were sleeping it off, though you didn’t get much sleep” Alex explained
“Oh shit, my mom...she’s going to kill me. I was supposed to be back hours ago. She doesn’t know I’m here, does she?”
“Nope, don’t worry...I’ll protect you.” Alex joked
Marissa smiled “Kevin back yet?”
“Nope haven’t seen him since he left to go smoke.”
“Oh no, what if my mom went to his house!” Marissa sat up worriedly
“Hang on, I’ll call him.” Alex said as she went over to the phone that was on the mural of her office. (I’m assuming that The Bait comprar has a phone though I’m not sure if Volchek does.)
“Kevin?” Alex spoke into the phone as she put him on speaker.
“Yea?” his voice resounded about the room
“Did Marissa’s mom por any chance stop by?”
“Uh, no.” There was a sudden knock in the background (on Kevin’s end of the phone) “Hang on” he yelled as he got up to open the door. He slid open the peep hole (is that what its called? The little part of a door that you can look through and see who’s outside) and saw a worried and angry looking red-head outside his door, she knocked again, but this time louder.
“Alex, I take that back, she’s here so I’ll call you back when she leaves.” there was a click as Volchek hung up.
Marissa listened on in horror as she heard his voice say that her mom was there.
“Well, at least she’s not here right?” Alex said trying to lighten Marissa’s worried expression.
“Yea well, it won’t be long before she finds out.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Can I help you?” Volchek asked as he opened the door
“Where’s my daughter?” Julie asked worriedly
“I can’t say I know what you’re talking about.”
“Where’s Marissa?”
“Are you deaf? I said I don’t know.”
“Look here boy, I need to talk to her. So stop with the games and tell me where she is!” Julie said urgently
“I’m sorry, but I can’t help you.”
“This is between me and my daughter, you have nothing to do with it so please, tell me where she is.”
“Have you gone fishing lately?” Volchek asked
“I don’t have time for your games! If you see her or talk to her before I do, tell her it’s about Hailey.” Julie said
“Will do, but I think its time you leave.” Volchek said as he shut the door in Julie’s face.
Julie walked away, defeated. *I could try Anna’s house* Julie thought to herself as she started another long walk down a dead end road.
“She’s gone.” Volchek spoke into the receiver (Volchek is still on speaker)
“Alright thanks.” Alex said as she was about to hang up.
“Wait, she told me to tell Marissa that whatever she has to say to her, its about Hailey. I’ll see ya later babe.” Volchek said to Marissa as he hung up the phone.
All the color in Marissa’s face drained at the mention of Hailey’s name which Alex seemed to take notice of.
“Who’s Hailey?” Alex asked curiously
“Nobody”
“Well she has to be somebody” Alex persisted
“I told you she’s nobody...at least not anymore.” Marissa said defensively, the hurt was evident in her voice and her eyes started to water. “My head is killing me” Marissa said, trying to quickly change the subject. Alex noticed that Marissa changed the subject right away, but didn’t push it.
“I’ll go get you something.” Alex said as she left her office, shutting the door behind her.
Marissa fell back onto the sofá as the memories of all the hurt and heartbreak she had felt when Hailey left came rushing back to her, making this, one of the seldom times that she cried.
