The waiter’s words hung in the air: “We’re closing next month.” Alex felt the blood drain from his face. "The Bistro Belle," his refuge, his sanctuary, was shutting its doors.

He stood abruptly, knocking over his chair. He didn't even notice. He stormed out, the clatter of the chair forgotten. His heart hammered in his chest, a furious drumbeat.
