Zachary had just reached the hospital when his phone rang. He was slightly taken aback.

This number… It has to be Charlotte.

His leg was still in the air when he retracted them and went back into his car to take the call. “Hello.”

“Where are you?” asked Charlotte to get right to the point.

“Home, why?” asked Zachary.

“I want to meet up,” said Charlotte, “See you in Sultry Night at ten tonight.”

 

“Sure, see you tonight,” replied Zachary as he checked his watch.

After hanging up the call, Zachary replayed Charlotte’s words in his mind repeatedly. He wondered why she asked to meet him that night…

 

She had probably met up with Olivia, so she should know what happened back then. Does she simply want to know who I am and where I stand?

That’s probably it.
