Temer que

Going slight off topic, why in this question is there no subjunctive after temer que?:

 Me temo que Cristina no podrá ir hoy al trabajo ...

Hola Ama

Here is a lesson that explains this use of the indicative with temer. 

In this case it is expressing a "belief/suspicion" more than fear.
