An unsettling discovery

Because Luby’s was a busy restaurant, Salazar didn’t have time to dwell on what had happened to Buck. There were several other customers to serve. Eventually, she forgot about him because of her busy job. Until she discovered something in the local newspaper. Oddly enough, she felt like she had to buy the paper, even though she wasn’t really looking for anything in particular.

The obituary page quickly grabbed her attention. It suddenly became clear why Buck had stopped coming in: he had passed away. Salazar couldn’t believe what she was reading.
