Chapter Four: Open Minds
“What the hell?” I said as my phone chirped. As I was sitting at my desk at work.
It was a notification from my alarm app someone was at my house. I looked at the camera view and saw a black man walking up to my front door. I hadn’t ordered anything,
“Can I help you?” I asked through the talk button of the app as he got closer to the door.
“Jesse sent me to do your deck,” the man said. “Name’s Andrew.”
Jesse never gave me a name. He just said someone would be coming around. “Hold on,” I said.
“Be right here,” Andrew replied.
I sent a text to Jacob to ask Jesse about the guy at my door, I didn’t have Jesse’s number, and I didn’t want it.
‘All good, Jesse said he’s the person,’ Jacob texted me back quickly.
He must have been near Jesse, or Jesse was at their house.
“Fine,” I said.
“Okay, I will get started,” Andrew said.
I turned the view to the back camera and saw Andrew with his tools starting to tear down the deck.
