A lot of his friends now had an Amazon Ring. Or some other type of home security system. He really ought to have one of those. It was the 21st century after all. Why wouldn't you have one of those? During Christmas he had watched the firstΒ

as reply to Where you hiding Blue Man
Regular people didn't have time to actually find out where theΒ
Blue Man
was. They could watch his videos. And sit in dark bars, drinking one more than they should over loud theories of whether the Blue Man was still alive or not.
But a regular person didn't have the resources...

keith forgot to shave
as reply to He Googled Coffee
Outside he went to a different place than the one he Googled. A diner caught his eye. Outside were several dark skinned men by mopeds. Their arms clung onto large delivery bags made of insulated material. It reminded Keith of those old school pizza delivery bags, but more 3D.

A commercial jet is said to burn about a gallon of fuel each second it's in the air. Keith pondered this while on his

airlines flight over to
New York
. This had been just 48 hours ago.
Strange that all of that felt so far away. So long ago....

Things had not been the same since Chuck's therapist died.
Chuck's wife Linda thought this while drinking a coffee. It was already past noon. She usually never drunk coffee this late. But she'd woken up late. Things were different for her too. Not just for Chuck. Their home was in shambles.

The sky was red when he decided.
If his wife wouldn't allow him to stop seeing the therapist. Then he would simply kill her. Dr. Carol was her name.
He drank the last of his hibiscus tea. It was a different red than the sky. His wife asked him with a smile....

"What?"
"Nothing. Just that. That's what my wife said."
You don't have to be happy all the time. It's something his wife said once. After he had lost his hat. And then shared that he was no longer happy. She said many things. But these words stuck with him.

as reply to Until Now
The man who had lost his hat on the boat. He had always been a supremely happy man.
The worst things could happen. He would take them in stride. Saw the positive side to anything.

There was a feeling the entire time. From the Uber, to the airport, and finally inΒ
New York
. The feeling of being watched.
He'd spent so much of his time watching others so he knew what it felt like to watch. It was uncanny to feel what it was like...
