Ten.One Thousand, Two Hundred & Twenty-Four

1. I guess they didn’t come today.

2. Wait. 4:12 am? That would be why they didn’t wake me up; they haven’t come yet.

3. What else to do but get to work.

4. Model Bakery at 6:40 am and we are not the first people. He orders a bag of muffins, gloves one his hands. He leaves in a newish Corvette.

5. I press send.

6. Not a repeat.

7. Hours. Always hours with her. He says we always giggle.

8. He ask me how I’m feeling. I say I am feeling all the things. I am a mixture of feelings: relief, sadness, anger, confusion about said anger.

9. I forgot to call.

10. Is it Friday? Only Wednesday.
