Spotted On The Front Lawn
The sound of the taxi accelerating drew Mark’s attention away from the front door. He turned his head and locked eyes with me just as I reached the curb.
His expression shifted from confusion to panic in a split second. He abandoned his post on the porch and vaulted over the railing, landing clumsily in the snow.
He sprinted across the frozen lawn, waving his arms and screaming for me to stop right where I was.
