A Whole New Crowd
“He asked once if I wanted something to eat. I nodded and he pulled into a drive-in type of diner. The waitress came out. When she asked what we wanted, I felt Tray glancing at me. He ordered for me and I was relieved. I didn’t know this guy, but he knew me. If I hadn’t been emotionally drained, I would’ve been scared by that. I wasn’t. I found it comforting instead.
When the food came out, a small table was hooked onto his door, and he handed my water to me. The food was left alone.
“Th...ank you.”
He nodded, but didn’t do anything. He didn’t eat. He didn’t drink his own water. Nothing.
I frowned. “Where are we?”
He shrugged. “Some other town. I figured you wanted to be long gone from Rawley and Pedlam.”
“Thank you.” Again. I started to smile. That was somewhat funny to me, that I kept thanking him, but it fell flat. The humor was forced in me.MoreLess
