“If I knew that, it wouldn’t be lost.” Savannah laughed.

Maggie sputtered out a laugh. “True.”

“I spoke to my mom yesterday, but after that, I don’t remember using my phone. I searched my house and car but couldn’t find it. It has all my contacts.” Savannah gasped. “My bank info is on there.”

“You have to call your cellphone provider to lock it.”

“I’ll do that right now,” Savannah said as she made her way to the office and called her provider. Once they locked her phone, she returned to the front of the store. “They took care of it. Now I have to buy a new phone. But even having the same number, I won’t have anyone’s contact information.”

“Yeah, unless you backed them up somewhere. I should probably do that too because I don’t know anyone’s number by heart,” Maggie said.

“I’ll get a new phone on my lunch break. I just can’t figure out where mine could be.”

“Well, better safe than sorry. And if you do happen to find it later, I hope you can get your numbers from it.”

“I hope Grady doesn’t think I’m ignoring him if he calls.”

“You should call him.”

“I’ll ask Parker to get his number from Maverick when I have a chance.”

“That’s a good idea.”

“I’ll do that after the rush,” Savannah said, noticing customers entering the store.

“Good luck with that,” Maggie added under her breath.

The day only got busier and by the time Savannah had a break, she hurriedly went to the cellphone store to purchase a new phone. When she returned to the shop, it was already bustling with customers. She rolled her eyes at Maggie and quickly put her new phone in her purse before locking it in the filing cabinet.

As closing time approached, Savannah and Maggie finally had a moment to catch their breath while sitting on stools behind the counter.

“Today was crazy busy,” Maggie commented.

“It definitely was. I know I shouldn’t complain, but I barely had a chance to breathe. And I never got around to calling Parker. It’s too late now since she’s probably on her way home and unfortunately, I don’t have her number saved.”

“I don’t have her number either. I’m sorry.”

“It’s alright. I’ll figure something out. I miss Grady so much right now and can’t even get in touch with him.”

“I’m sure he’ll come by when he can’t reach you.”

“I hope so. Unless he thinks I’m still mad at him. I need to call Parker tomorrow.” Savannah stood up. “I guess we can call it a day here.”

“Okay, I’m ready whenever you are.”

“At least your apartment is close by.” Savannah smiled.

“I absolutely love the apartment. Thanks again for offering it to me.”

“I almost moved into it myself, but when my friend Kinley offered me her townhouse, I couldn’t pass it up.”

“Kinley?”

“Yeah, Kinley Wilson. She moved in with her fiancé, Levi Thomas, and let me know her place was up for grabs. I jumpedat the opportunity and love living there.”

“I bet it’s amazing.”

“It definitely is. You should come by sometime.”
