"Now, hurry up and call your friend."


I drop my eyes to the lighted phone

I touch the call button with shaking fingertips

the phone to my ear

I can hear the ring tone


Then, he turns around

making his way out of the living room

His navy blue back

dissolving into the darkness


Where is he heading...?

I look in the general direction and

realize.


"Wait... Where are you..."


At that moment

there is a blip as the other side

takes the call.

And a loud, worried cry issues

from the speaker.

I put my phone

at arms length.


"KIA OH MY GOD ARE YOU OKAY??!!"
