My Head: mentally kicked for what I just did. Immediate promise to self: 2:00 a.m. will have me anywhere but here. ________ There’s something about that girl that makes me think things I don’t want to be thinking. I grab my phone and call Mark. He picks up after the first ring. “Hey.” I come up on a couple people sleeping in bundled clothes on the sidewalk, and frown. “Aren’t you gone yet?” “No flights until the morning. Fucking curfew.” Stopping to open my wallet, I bend and slide a couple tens where they can find them when they wake up. “Does she know you’re coming?” The economy has been eating up the world. I can’t stand it. “No way. I emailed back her friend though.” “The one you had sex with.” He’s obviously packing from the way he pauses several times like he’s distracted. “Right. And she says we have to handle this right. So, I’m deferring to her judgment. I’ll go to her place first.” Since I’m walking back the way he and I came earlier that night, I see our usual haunts up just ahead.
