It's the end of September and the weather in the city is starting to cool down a lot quicker that I thought it would.
I'm standing at the curb trying to get a taxi's attention. I've been waiting for 15 minutes. My phone starts ringing and I pull it out of my back pocket and see it's Annie.
"Emma's whorehouse, you pay, we fake it."
"Shit, Emma. What is wrong with you?" As she's dying from laughter.
"Eh, I thought it would make you laugh." And shrug my shoulders.
When her laughter finally dies down she is a stern as she can be. "But really, where the hell are you? His family is going to be here... damnit, Emma! They're here now! Just get here!" And hangs up.
Oh, what a delight. I cannot wait. I whistle with my fingers and finally got a taxi's attention.
I get in the back seat and tell him where to take me.
It was about a 10 minute drive. I should have taken the subway and made it there sooner. I pay my fair and walk into Annie's building to her floor. I normally don't knock on her door since being back, but I guess I should to be respectful to Johnathan's family. I knock lightly 3 times.
