DAY 364, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER
S: What if they aren't awake?
K: You were awake.
S: No I wasn't, I'm a light sleeper.
K: I'm pretty sure R is as well.
S: Only pretty sure?
K: Maybe their sleeping habits changed over the last year.
S: We'll see soon enough.
K: And if they don't wake up, I'm sorry for dragging you out of bed, making you sneak out of your house and get on your bike with me at 3 AM. On a Wednesday.
S: Don't forget it's cold.
K: Yeah, sorry about that too.
S: It's fine. I don't think I've ever been outside at this hour.
K: Never?
S: Don't sound so judgmental, not everyone goes out 'til morning every weekend.
K: It's weird to think those people exist..
S: But I'm here!
K: You are. Why did you come along if you never do stuff like this?
S: Because I never do things like this. There's a first time for everything.
K: That's true.
S: Also, I don't like you guys fighting. This is a nice idea.
K: Thanks.
S: Not sure how they'll feel about you, us I guess, waking them up in the middle of the night.
K: We'll see soon enough, won't we?
S: We will. How's the calling going?
K: R isn't picking up.
S: Makes sense. That's their window, right?
K: Yeah. Completely dark.
S: We could throw pebbles at it.
K: Like a romcom?
S: Exactly. They like movies. It would make the middle-of-the-night thing a little less bad.
K: I guess so. But we're not really doing that.
S: Not?
K: No. So- S, I see you doing that.
S: Doing what? I have absolutely no idea what you're talking abut.
K: You're telling me you did not just walk to the driveway to pick up pebbles?
S: Nope. I'm definitely not about to throw them.
K: You can't do that.
S: Watch me.
K: Oh my- you actually did it? Are you crazy? If you didn't miss the window you might have broken it!
S: I have another one. Try two. Here we go.
K: Don't-
S: Damn it. Another miss. Third time's the charm.
K: I don't think this is the way to do it.
S: Why? I haven't hit the target yet. Maybe it works then.
K: Maybe, just... angle it a little higher.
S: Like this?
K: Yeah, now throw it. Not with too much power.
S: Here we go.
K: Nice!
S: I actually hit it. Take that old gym teacher!
