Shawn got up early. Earlier than most people. He knew this because no one was outside when he went on his morning cycle. In the winter after his shower it was just sunrise when he drank his coffee. In the summer the sun started with him during his cycle.

Then Cal said again to himself "Maybe he was?"

He told Keith he should sleep.


When he got back to his room he searched Marianna's disease. 

Women usually get it more often, but when he looked at the symptoms he thought he had most of them. Actually he was sure. He felt...

Cal prided himself always telling the truth. Even when sometimes he would regret it, or a friend would get hurt, at least he was being honest. With Keith he felt like he couldn't. Maybe its because he knew he was going to die, maybe because it didn't feel like his...

Debby didn't mind waking up early. When she did she drank coffee slow her husband started before he left even earlier. She drank it black the mug was her grandmothers. She had a few recipes from her that used that exact mug as a measuring cup. Thats why she had...
