Abraham Kim last shared their writing assumptions
Howard felt okay being a broke college student the moment she said that. Yes. This girl that he found beautiful and smart and brave was also a broke college student and this made it so he no longer felt bad for being one. He hadn't even recognized until then that...

johnny's dead as reply to It was Chuck

Howard hadn't heard a thing about Chuck in over 40 years now. This was a long time. It felt longer when Howard calculated the year. Had that much time passed? He didn't think he had much time left.  He could go any year now he thought. Strange because even 40...

with the memories as reply to His Bladder

Back when he was young it would be a weeknight with no plan to do any real drinking. Someone's friend might come over and there might be two people in the kitchen cooking, with a few standing around drinking tallboys. Summer would've just began and so people were getting used...

a commotion as reply to When

He didn't make it past the fourth beer. His gal came, placed a blanket over his lap and belly and then took the opened cans. She shook his head as he poured the remains into the sink. They used to fight over him wasting beer like this. It still annoyed...

the day after as reply to I don't know

St. Patrick's day had come and gone without him remembering the holiday.

He might never be able to remember it from this point on, because from now on March 17th would always be the date where he had dropped a baguette on the floor and Johnny's girlfriend or whatever she was...

max wasn't convinced as reply to I don't know

Johnny continued to explain how everybody else in the hall was normal. "You don't even notice them," he had said. "That lady though. I noticed from the start. The day I moved in. She felt a little too present. Too nosey."

"She's probably like that cause she's old. Retired, lots of...

at life's end as reply to When

That day he got out six cans of beer and placed them on the coffee table in front of the chair he always sat in. Only one can was open. The five he would drink after this.

There was no plan for the day other than sitting there drinking until he...

the suspense as reply to Make his move

He wanted to make the move but the beer was making his eyelids heavy. He would soon be a sleep. Wanted to have fell asleep awhile back. But he kept hoping Johnny would stretch his arms up and say it was time for him to hit the hay.

Instead Johnny kept...

the peep hole caught his eye as reply to Johnny Said

Johnny had been on a nihilistic bent ever since McKayla died, which had been that day. It was fast. But Max thought his friend was getting over it quite fast. At least in his own way. The two of them were kicking back tallboys while sitting on the couch. Johnny...

maybe they had found his car as reply to Time for this

The  cappuccino hit differently. He didn't find himself enjoying it. Instead he was rushing through it.

Well Max knew he would drink the first fast. He needed the caffeine, a little pick me up. But he didn't expect to be so dis-satisfied by it.

He was already looking ahead to the second...
