jealousy is a strong stimulant

Two seconds later I’m speed dialing Whitey and told him the story.  His sounds of realization were mostly guttural.  “I always liked that broad.”  He followed that with some grunts, ala Karl in Sling Blade.  “Your buddy Robbie is with Sam right now.  I’m going to relay this.  I smell motive.”  With that he hung up.

It just didn’t fit with Robbie killing Teri, but jealousy is a powerful stimulant.  And, Lilly indicated she was slightly afraid of his recent temper.  My thoughts leaned toward Robbie being afraid… afraid of losing half of his wealth which could mean status.  I expect him to go crawling back to her.

Suddenly I was extremely restless and took my thoughts on a walk toward Missey’s just to check out the area.  If Robbie was involved in Teri’s death it would be in the arena of hiring someone to do it.  Consequently, I was totally alert… almost to the point of expectation… of anything.
