The address was only six minutes away. They could've walked. But Jerry might've gotten upset had he seen them taking too much time. They arrived at a dark brick building perched on a hill. The front had an ornamental reservoir wall of stone.

"This it?"

"No. It's a unit in the building...

Once alone again the thrill waned. Regret came. Why had she told the gals? She knew why, but she questioned her ethics. She was weak. Willing to throw someone else under the bus for a cheap dose of stimulation. This is what the other gals looked from her. Juicy tales...

In the alley of a no name city. No where you could get a direct flight to from a major city. There was a smell. In the heat of summer, it permeated quick and far. Someone reported it. The police arrived within an hour.

A tall blonde woman covered her nose....

The office stared at the tall man who walked by. He must've been 6'5. But his bad posture had him standing at an effective height of just 6'3. On paper he was not a high ranking official. In fact, he wasn't even an official. Nobody was sure what he was....

The company was late on its rent . There was nobody to resolve the issue so they assigned it to an  intern . However the intern didn't take care of the issue and so the startup was getting kicked out of the office. Not because the building they rented a...

Time was running out. He could tell. One could only hide a body for so long until something happened. A  witness or the  police fucking showing up at your god damn door.

Mark couldn't believe that the two officers had let him off the hook like that. They had even said...

"What was that about?"

"Just cops. Assholes. You know?"

"They seemed to. Ask a lot of questions."

"Yeah. Harrassment."

"Well let's eat then."

"Excellent."

"You know what. I'm actually not hungry at all."

"No?"

"You eat. I'll sit with you. Watch you eat."

"Suit yourself, mate. So those police officers. What did they ask?"

"They were asking where I was...

"Should I knock again?"

The more senior officer nodded.

Three light, albeit harder than before, taps. The senior got annoyed and pushed the junior aside and pounded his fist against the door six times. Then he pressed his right ear against the door.

"There, I hear someone inside," he said. The junior officer...

"Are we going to knock on all these doors?"

"Yes."

"Why? There must be a better system?"

"There isn't. It's not like the old days when everybody watched the same few channels."

"What about  Twitter ?"

"Twitter? What about it?"

"Can't we tweet it there and get it trending?"

"Just how many followers do you think our...

police officer Dan Anderson sat in the employee lounge listening to the ceiling fan turn overhead. His break was technically up five minutes ago, but he knew that it wouldn't matter if he sat there for another extra five.

He enjoyed this part of the day. Sitting there, not thinking about...

The knocks on the door frightened her. Three of them. Neither soft or hard, equally spaced apart.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Why hadn't they just use the doorbell, she wondered? By reflex she was headed towards the door when she remembered that the house had a camera installed facing towards the street that...
