That evening I checked into the motel late. The man, who I only could assume to be the owner, looked upset. Downtrodden. Didn't know if it was because he just hated being there or if he was genuinely having a bad day.

I say he had to be the owner because...

"Who even reads books   these days?"

"Nobody."

"So why are you writing one."

"Plenty of people still write books."

"So let me get this straight. You're telling me nobody reads. But people still write?"

Jack's autobiographer nodded.

"Also what's this mess with Jackoff calling you his autobiographer? Doesn't he know what an  autobiography even means?"

"I don't...

The work wasn't chaos. In fact Keith liked it. There was some bitter that came with the new fruit. Nearly half his previous coworkers were laid off. And he was doing double the work as before. But he was barely doing anything before. So the doubling didn't affect him much....

Emily didn't have a dog. Her family had one growing up.

Jack was sort of like a  dog for her now. The intimate level of understanding did that. She'd know what foods made him shit and fart. She'd know what foods made him happy. And once in awhile, she would...

The donations would have to stop one day. Just a matter of time.

Charles kept his stare. Had to. If he were to look away while Ezekiel glared at him, then it would show weakness. Ezekiel might sabotage him then. It...

lunch was usually a relaxing affair for Group A. For the most part, their job was complete by the time lunch rolled around. So long as they accomplished their stretch of the daily experiment that day. On the rare occasion they dropped the ball, then lunch was unpleasant. Almost not...

Greg was also scared. Thought if Stacey found out she might stop working. She would ask him to start withdrawing funds out of the account.

Greg had kept the balance the same amount since his mom's passing. He had gotten the funds accidentally deposited into the checking account when he had...

He had gone to last hour prepared so that when the final bell rang, he could theoretically go straight to the bus without stopping by his locker.

It was 2:25. He had to find Patel within 11 minutes. At 2:40 the bus would leave. Penn figured he could make it to...

To get to his next class, Penn needed to walk from the edge of the south wing to the edge of the west.

The north wing was completed only three years ago. Technically it didn't shoot straight west. It went west and north, which further increased the distance. This made...
