[JASMINE]

   I sat casually in the lobby while Chorís was standing outside the ER.

After about an hour, he came back. "He's fine enough, the idiot. He's always been a bad driver..."

"What's his name?"

"Blake."

"Kinda basic name, isn't it?"

"Yeah."

   He gestured for me to get up. "Well, onto to that apartment of yours."

   I nodded and walked out with him, my hands in my pockets.

   About an hour later (due to traffic) we finally arrived at Midville Apartments.

   "See you," Chorís said.

   Before I put my other leg out the car, he handed me a slip of paper.

   "Call me again,"

   "You seem pretty interesting."

   I rolled my eyes at the semi-pick-up-line.

   Chorís just chuckled and waved as I walked away.

   I returned the gesture and unlocked my door, finally home.
