Today he felt different. Today he wanted to know more. He spied on The K Man. And it turned out. He didn't actually wear the same dirty pants. Keith saw from K Man's laundry room camera that K Man actually did wash his pants. The pants happened to have a tough stain. K Man tried getting it out with

  a few times but failed.

Keith felt bad for judging him. His Tall Black suddenly tasted better. Keith checked to make sure nobody could see that he was spying on K Man. Keith's back was against the brick wall. He shut his laptop and went back to his newspaper. But the paper no longer felt entertaining after having gotten a taste of spying again. He left the cafe. Waved to K Man before heading out the door.

He guzzled the rest of the Tall Black then placed the plastic cup into a recycling bin. Keith wasn't going back to work today. Was going to go do more snooping. He could find Marianna easy... if he used his tools. He hadn't until then. But now he had the itch. He sent a text to Zodie, the next in line at the lab. "I'm not feeling well. Heading home. Call me if there's an emergency." And went home.
