Kelan never missed an appointment which was the more reason it bothered him.Despite the urgency pulsing through his veins, Mello knew he had to focus on the road ahead. Taking a deep breath, he made a split-second decision to pull over at the next available spot. With the car safely parked, he retrieved his laptop from the passenger seat and began composing an email to Kelan, his fingers tapping out his concerns with a sense of urgencyWi

As he continued along the orderly street, he approached a traffic stop, joining the line of vehicles patiently awaiting their turn to proceed.While he waited, his gaze inadvertently fell upon the illuminated screen of a nearby billboard.
