6:12 AM · Teo doesn't do voicemails

Morning after. You drove all night. You are in the county hospital lot with the engine off, because they will not let you in until seven and you do not want to be the person who cries at the desk. Your father cannot speak yet.

Ten minutes. He types. You tap when you're ready for the next one.

People so far

Dell — Your father; owns the diner.

Mara — Diner server; left you the voicemail.

Dobbs — Drives the deposit pickup; Mara says the bag was gone before he arrived.

Deputy Voss — Eats at the counter every night; Mara says she'll tell it differently.
