“Officer Dan?” She said wrinkling her nose , fiddling with the coiled line of the phone. Her gum snapped and her hair was pulled up too high for her age.
“Officer Dan speaking, how may I help you?” He was harried and in need of another coffee. He wished he hadn’t have taken this call. ‘Oh, what does this one want?’ he thought, grabbing a new pencil.
“Hi Dan, this is Jenny from Rapid Repro…” She dropped the phone on the floor..”Bam” She shuffled to get it…’damn’, she thought…
”... you alright?” she asked, full of concern.
Dan chuckled, had to, that was kinda cute…
“Sorry man,” she said finally after composing herself, and getting a better hold on the reciever.
“Uh..The wanted posters, the ones you are having printed up…the $10,000 reward one?...”
“Yeah, what about them, are they ready to be picked up?”
He got up from his chair and headed for his coat.
“No” she said. ‘shit’, he thought, ‘how long…we need to get those up NOW ’ “No..just double checking the spelling, is it W A L L A C E ?“
