The voice asked George something that surprised him: “Are you the guy who is currently looking after my old police dog Rex?”. George was caught off guard. The voice seemed somewhat familiar, maybe someone he had met through Zoe’s friends. He hesitated but then said, “Yes, that’s me.” The quick and unsettling response took him by surprise.
“Stop with this poking around you’re doing, you are in over your head son”, the voice warned him. The call abruptly ended, leaving George staring at his phone in disbelief. Who was this strange caller? And did he know something about the confusing situations involving Rex, Zoe, and himself? “I need some air”, George thought as he left the house.
