weekend.”
    Alex listened to his buddy and relished being single. “I kinda promised my sister I’d have dinner with them one night this week and I haven’t made it over there yet.”
    “One night doesn’t mean tonight. It can mean tomorrow night. What do you say?” Phil crumbled his burger wrapper and put it inside the paper bag along with his other trash. “Can I tell Brandon it’ll be the three amigos tonight?”
    Alex grinned and nodded. “Yeah. I’m in.”
    “All right!” Phil stood and slurped the last of his fountain drink before they walked to the trash receptacles. “Pick me up at seven. I’m taking my car into the shop to be worked on over the weekend.”
    “What about Brandon?”
    “He’ll meet us there. He’s got a thing after work not far from where we’re going.”
    “Where exactly are we going?” Alex asked , getting a funny feeling in the pit of his stomach that his friend wasn’t being totally straight with him.
    “It’s a surprise. Trust me. You’ll love it.”
    “I don’t know about that.”
    Phil laughed and waved, opening the glass door. “See you at seven.”
    Alex dumped his trash and pulled out his cellphone. He dialed Keely’s number, but it went to voicemail.  Hanging up without leaving a message, he went to his truck and turned on his GPS device. He punched in Wright & Associates and did a lookup for the address and directions. Perhaps it was time he saw where his sister works before he took Duke to his vet appointment.
    He found the office building eas ily enough and public parking wasn’t too far away. Downtown sure had changed in the three years he’d been gone. The new movie theater and Mast General Store garnered more foot traffic than he recalled. He liked the fact that the company his sister now worked for was located in a refurbished older building as opposed to the pretentious glass building where Jackson and Jackson had been.
    Pushing the glass turnstile door, he went into the lobby and took the elevator up to the sixth floor. He stepped off leaving the old behind. The space was totally modern in look and feel and a receptionist sat behind a desk waiting to greet him.
    “ May I help you?” she asked.
    “I’m here to see Keely Jones.”
    “Certainly. One moment while I buzz her.” The woman punched a few buttons on a lighted panel and spoke into the ear wig that she wore. “She’ll be right out if you want to have a seat.”
    “Thanks.” He wa lked over to the cushioned waiting area and sat down, picking up a magazine. But before he opened it, his sister appeared and he laid it back on the table.
    “Alex?” Keely said, planting her hands on her hips. “What are you doing here?”
    “I had time to kill after I had lunch with Phil before I take Duke to his appointment. I thought since I was close to downtown I’d swing by and see where you work now. I hope I didn’t come at a bad time.”
    “No. I’m just eating lunch in my office. Come on back with me and I’ll show you around. My assistant is out to lunch, but maybe she’ll get back before you leave. I’d really like you to meet her. You probably don’t remember me talking about her, but she came with me when I left Jackson and Jackson.”
    He nodded. “Darren works here too?”
    “Yes. It’s his sister’s company. He’s out meeting with a client and Jama’s at the doctor. Did I mention she’s also expecting?”
    “No. You didn’t.”
    “She’s due any day now, with twins.”
    “Twins. Wow.”
    “Yeah. Darren and I are just lucky we didn’t end up with twins since they run on his side of the family. Of course my mother-in-law is over the moon to not be having two grandbabies but three so close together.”
    “Jama’s married to Duke’s vet, right?”
    Keely nodded and opened her office door. “ Yes. Kyle Landers.”
    He stepped inside and smiled. “I see you got your corner office.”
    “I did. And the window view is great. I see Gay Street and the wonderful Tennessee
