Maybe other great things would happen to him hey, he was still young, right? but it was hard to imagine living to eighty or ninety or whatever and looking back at his life and having a better memory than the time he totally fucked Dr. Adam Bloom and his whole uppity family. Everything had been going perfectly, even better than Johnny had planned. On Saturday Marissa had come over to his place, and theyd spent the day and night screwing and getting closer to each other. They talked a lot, too. He was casual about it, but he picked up some important info about her and her parents and their habits that he hoped he could use later on. Like when she was talking about her father he slipped in questions like, Does your dad work every day? and What time does he usually come home from work? Not being obvious about it, just acting like he was curious, making small talk. She told him that Adam Bloom usually left for work at like eight oclock and came home like around seven or eight. It turned out hed need this info a lot sooner than hed thought.
