EXCERPT:
With renewed purpose, I trek through the sand along the bushes that line the sides of the property and separate it from the neighbors. But nothing could have prepared me for the sight I encounter as I come around the front of the house.
A woman is walking backward up the front porch steps, waving an umbrella in front of her as she yells at a gaggle of geese. Nearly ten of them are gathered just a few feet from her, honking obnoxiously in protest as she wields the umbrella like a weapon to fend them off.
"Go! Get!" she yells, but there's something familiar about that voice that makes me pause. And the longer I watch her, the stronger the sense of déjà vu becomes.
"Back up!" She lunges forward as the geese squawk and jump backward, only to move forward again once she runs to the door, keeping the umbrella behind her as a shield.
Once I snap of my daze, I figure I might as well lend a hand. As amusing as the sight is, she seems genuinely scared. "Need some help?"
Her head snaps up, and when our eyes lock, my stomach plummets.
It's her—the blonde from the bar.
She still looks uptight, although the gaggle of geese might be partly to blame.
"You!" she spits out, disdain lacing her words.
"Me?" I retort with just as much conviction. "What the hell are you doing here?"
She twists and lunges toward the geese with the umbrella again, huffing in frustration. "Well, currently I'm trying to get inside my house, but as you can see, these geese seem to have an agenda of making my life a living hell."
My house.
Did I just hear her correctly?
It can't be.
