I wanted to pull my hair tight and scream, to let out all the pent-up emotions currently my insides. Or perhaps I should lift one of these wooden chairs and hurl it at him.

I felt their curious eyes onas I stopped in the middle of the bar and scanned the area. None of them looked like the picture I saw on Grace's phone or the image of Joel I still had in my memory.
