Marc Love was surprised to learn that Drew had a phD from  Cambridge . Not because Drew didn't seem smart but because he was here now in America working as a cashier at a grocery store. Love wanted to ask how he came to do that but didn't want to...

heat as reply to Called Out

The infared camera was Dave's favorite. When it was dark, the guy in there couldn't see shit. But Dave could see all of the guy. His heat.  body heat was an amazing thing. Something Dave took for granted until this job.

There were so many movie scenes he rememberd. Where a...

watching as reply to Would Happen

The room had no windows. He faced a computer all day. And the coffee was bad.

But he was no longer in that motel room. So he was glad to be here.

Big Joe still brought him Chinese food. The same kind he got delivered in that dingy motel room. He'd...

keith wondered as reply to Keith Thought

"Have a little bit more to drink."

Keith looked at the cameras. Wondered which one was the one the person was looking at. Keith wanted the person to see Keith straight on.

"You must be thirsty. We know you're dehydrated. So go on. Have a drink."

Keith kept looking. Felt his mouth with...

before ten as reply to The Note Said

He wasn't sure if he could leave the room or not. He had passed the test. What did that mean?

He had nowhere to go even if he were to leave the motel. So he stayed put. Was just happy to have eaten somethign for the first time in days.

Whoever was...

nice to know as reply to Turned Around

Dave... the other one, not the one who worked with Keith in a lab, was still stuck inside that motel. He hadn't eaten in four days now. Was worried  Big Joe would never return.

Dave felt the fat on his stomach. Estimated he had about four or so weeks left to...

a familiar coastline as reply to Could Do

There was nothing good on. All the good stuff went to streaming services now. The  TV was akin to paper mail. Nothing but junk and ads.

But the big man hadn't left him a computer. He didn't have his phone on him. There was nothing to do but watch the tube....

at least the groceries as reply to Dave Said.

It was enough food for two days he supposed. Calories. No nutrition really. But something to consume and not be 'starving' at least.

He didn't know what he was going to do. In fact he had never gotten a reply to the question: how long would he have to hide out...

swell as reply to Been Changed

Keith had always found his upbringing sad. Over the couple days he told it to Imogen Howe , he realized it wasn't sad at all. Had he read a similar upbringing in another man's biography he wouldn't pity the guy. Would find it relatable. Nothing to be ashamed of.

That's what...

in decades as reply to Feel the Best

She was asleep when he returned. The song kept playing in his head.

"The  Seaside Rest , the place that knows you best."

Stuck in his head. An ear worm. Funny that it was this motel jingle.

He thought about what to do. Sat on the chair near the other window, away from...

convince me, Big Joe said as reply to No Idea

And he would have no idea. Because in a flash he was blacked out.

THUD.

He woke up later. Not sure what time it was. He could tell it was a basement. But the windows were completely blacked out. There was no way to sense whether it was day or night.

"You're awake,"...
