"What are you doing, Max? Can't you see you're overcooking those eggs?" Then Dave looked over at the hash. "That too." He had a look of disgust on his face. Max took the eggs and potatoes off the griddle before Dave came in to intervene.

the quiet of being alone
as reply to The Ceiling
Max and Dave were in sync at the diner, but not outside of it.
When Max got off the social media platforms, he had told Dave "you can text me though you got my number." Dave smiled, had assumed that Max would now be getting other hobbies. Maybe reading books or...

max eats dinner alone
as reply to Cheese
This evening, he nibbled only a little bit of the pasta before spitting it out into the trash. Usually he would just swallow the not fully cooked pasta even though it was probably partially undigestable. But a week earlier he had gotten sick from eating oysters and had been bed...

something other than american breakfast
as reply to He was Busy
After work the two sweaty men patted each other on the back. It would look like they would go out for a beer or something. But neither did. They had homes to return to. To clean. and wind down. Beer was something the old Max would've gone out to after...

Johnny found it insane that McKayla was okay with letting things be.Β
He checked the peep hole over and over again to see what she had seen. Eventually McKayla had to groan at him, "stop going over there. Let it go."

peep hole
as reply to Find Her
She wasn't expecting to see anything when stepping up to the peep hole. Looking through it was more of a joke. Years later she would wonder how much different life would've been had she never tried looking through that peep hole at that exact moment.

mckayla doesn't do birthdays
as reply to Same Now
He hadn't said it was his birthday. But he knew she didn't remember. McKayla never remembered birthdays. She even preferred people not knowing her's either.
Johnny always remembered her's when it came around. But he never told her happy birthday in a celebratory manner that might make her embarrassed. He'd always...

scrunching up
as reply to His Deal
He was bummed that she took out her phone. If it had been another friend he wouldn't have cared. Everybody was constantly on and off their phones these days. But McKayla was different. When she was hanging out, she always gave you her full attention. So when she took out...

that had to be the one, right?
as reply to Just Ranch
He was sure that McKayla hadn't seen the red convertible. It was a big ask to expect someone to spot something reflecting off a storefront's glass like that. He had only seen it because he was looking for it. Anytime he went out now he was at least subconsciously watching...
