Matthew
I hadn't told her I was coming to New York. And I made Sarah promise not to say anything to her.
Ever since I spoke to Hailey last week, a small part of me has nagged at my brain. Hailey sounded nervous and I started to wonder why.
As her older brother, I had always been super protective over her and she is having trouble at her new job, I can't just leave her alone to deal with it!
Hailey might be brilliant, capable, and stubborn as hell, but that doesn't change the fact that she is my baby sister. And when something feels off, I show up.
So I did even though I know Hailey won't love this…unexpected visit.
I booked the flight and landed this morning. Didn't even check into the hotel before coming straight here. I figured I'd take her out to lunch, check in, and see what kind of circus this Marcus Winters character was really running.
I walk toward the reception desk, my heart beating nervously.
