He wondered while he walked now towards the campus if she would know where Keith was.

He thought if she did she’d probably just be with him. Or maybe she’d know what happened to him at least. 

He didn’t really know why they were meeting.  It was sort of just to...

The next morning he woke up earlier than usual. He didn’t remember falling asleep but when he woke up it felt like he slept all night. Like he slept the perfect amount. 

He was, at least according to his secret message, supposed to meet her in two hours. Near where...

During their video game session his partner asked if he was okay. He'd not finished the puzzle like normal. She was trying to do a sort of speed run, and he was lagging behind. 

"We've done this before, don't make it into something complicated it hasn't changed."

She didn't press him...

Part of him would miss Spacecity here and there. It snuck up on him. Different feelings. He remembered when you first get there you feel a bit trapped. Not immediately. Immediately you can't believe you're in space. You meet people everything is new and exciting, but then it fades, and...

He didn’t really know what to do with the number. If they tracked his online usage they’d see his call to her and it’d ruin everything. Or she knew that and it was a fake number. More of I see you thing. Maybe it’d be something else. He thought about...

She was surprised to see him. It was the first person she’d seen...

She didn't react. Or it wasn't like he thought it would be. He imagined that she'd look around. That she make a face. But she didn't nothing. Even when she said it out loud she didn't change her demeanor. Just seemed like everyone else that works there. He didn't pay...

He wanted to blurt out that he knew her. And get her attention. But she was working away at the drinks. She seemed focused and a line was forming behind him. The rush to the a class. 

So he did something else he told the lady that his name was...

The square was definitely less crowded. The cold weather and the clouds didn’t make it as inviting. Even for Pete he sort of wanted to stay home today. 

Maybe she worked Mondays and Wednesdays or something. Or maybe she worked afternoons. He’d figure it out, he didn’t really have anything...
