He had a unmistakable urge now to piss. The coffee and tea went through him, and unlike when he was younger and his mom would always ask if he had to go, he didn't think about this. 

He felt awkward just to go in and then go straight to the...

"Shit" He looked at the clock then his watch.

He was supposed to meet Johnny in like 15 min, and it was the other side of town. 

He checked his phone, and the location Johnny had sent him. 

If he walked fast he thought, maybe he could make it. 

He looked...

It was too sweet initially. But he was perched in one of his favorite seats. His back against the glass the heat of the room he could dissipate there. He didn't like people over his shoulder. He couldn't understand why you would sit in the center, but maybe some people...

The bell to the door rang like it always did. It had again for another year avoided becoming sold out, and turned into a burger joint, or a pita place. It was just nice coffee and some books. 

He liked this place, because the books were just what the owner...

Now he was parked. He took a last swig off his coffee from home, and grabbed his bag. He clicked the lock button twice, and the car beeped that it was safe. Not that he had anything expensive there, it was mostly on him, but he was always worried. Especially...

The fields where corn grew stretched to either side of him, and in front. He was at a four way stop. And in front of him to the right was a big house, dark red worn by weather and everything. Against the semi snowy backdrop it seemed from another time. ...

His take was low. Not low for most people but for Max he didn't like lower than a half tank. His dad had told him that if you let the gas get too low, you increase the ratio of impurities to gas, and thats not good. 

So now he always...

The drive could be made longer or shorter. Shorter meant the highway, with the high speed and all that. The long way was a road that used to be the highway, it was built right next to it just was slower ran through some small towns.

It gave you a little...

Max hadn’t seen him in awhile. So it was nice that he reached out. Johnny, for some reason it was out of habit but he’d never message him. 

Max would never message Johnny. It was some sort of code they’d developed. A code that might just be in Max’s head.

He...
