’ ‘I don’t care if your mother lives there,’ the woman clearly didn’t remember meeting Gabe and kept an angry tone to her voice. ‘It’s a...little late for breaking in tonight.’ ‘I wasn’t breaking in. I just don’t have a key to get in.’ Gabe groaned at the lack of conviction in his statement. It would be a wonder if the woman believed him, since she clearly didn’t recognize him. The woman sucked on her teeth. ‘Well, I’d say a man snooping around these parts right now isn’t any good. A doorbell. ’ ‘They did. I’m telling you. I studied this crap. I lived this shit.
