The three of them all looked at each other. Nobody said it for a moment. But each knew the other were thinking the same thing. Later Howard would think it was strange all three of them were on campus Thanksgiving night. Didn't Mike and Spencer have families they had to...

"Maybe people won't notice that I'm missing. After all... how often does a customer need to come to be considered a regular?"
Marc said nothing.
"Come on. Take a guess."
"I don't know. Once a week?"
"I didn't come in for a full three weeks last year. I broke my leg and stayed in...

as reply to At it
The screen turned blue. Candace thought, what the fuck? wasn't the phone supposed to be off... maybe Elena thought she had turned it off... or her pockets had turned it on by pressing a button.
Elena looked at Candace. Neither looked comfortable.
What should we do both thought without saying. The phone...

Elena was already there when Candace arrived at theΒ

. She spotted her roommate through the glass, watched as Elena unknowingly sipped water nervously. Candace could see something was wrong. Probably why Elena had asked her out to dinner.

The phone burned a hole in her jacket pocket. The morning coffee didn't hit as usual. Instead of feeling relaxed, she felt like a kid playing hot potato. Marc wouldn't come intoΒ

breaths
as reply to Shown Blue
She answered the call, eager to say 'Marc is that you.'
A loud breathing came through. She could tell it was a man from the start.
She dared not say a word. Marc was slim. She could tell this breath didn't belong to him. It belonged to a heavyset man. An older...

marc's phone
as reply to Back
It still was a mystery to her.
The empty contacts list.
The only city on the weather app being Cupertino. What did it all mean?
Could mean that it was a brand new phone.
She had tried hard not to check when Marc had gotten the phone.
But ended up looking through his texts. There...

elena borrows marc's phone
as reply to A small list
"Excuse me, miss."
Damn Elena thought. TheΒ podcast was getting to an interesting point. She would need to resume a few minutes before. To get the whole thing setup again. You couldn't just stop and resume at the same spot. Conversations built up to a crescendo. Climaxed.
But she was at work....

elena shows up to work
as reply to Normal Person
It was a cold morning. Elena's skin was pricked cold during her walk to work. It wasn't a cold that chilled to the bone. The wind was like ice; the cold stayed mostly confined to the surface.
The cold had arrived sooner than expected. She had not worn her wool...

as reply to Down the street
The floor lamp casted a gentle glow when he walked through the door. He had a timer set so that he would never come into the apartment pitch dark. He hated that feeling. Scary memories from childhood.
His place wasn't so homey. He could never make a place like that. His...

He went to the bar sometimes straight after work. There was a new brewery in town. He touched his bristles. coming in thick on the way there. Driving. Listening to the local radio station covering the news at 5 o clock. It was ready by a volunteer from the community...
