Saturday night. Harper’s head fell back on the couch forlornly. Nothing to do.
Monday he’d had bingo. Tuesday cards. Wednesday a Giant’s game and mucho beers with Jack. Thursday bowling and Friday he’d taken Bonnie to dinner.
He leaves his apartment and heads to his favorite sushi bar. An interminable line has formed.
Another block and a taxi deluges him while racing through a muddy puddle. Bonnie doesn’t return his text. Jack is blindly drunk. He nabs an Uber to see the latest comedy at Bosco’s. Sold out!
Back on his couch, headache booming, he’s got nothing to do. Praise be.
Loved this piece. Crisp and tidy!
Been there, done that.
Get a good feeling of mc desperate to fill emptiness. Lots of busyness, all falling apart on him.
