Demolition Angel (2000)
“I know what you told me on the phone, but tell me everything now.”
Starkey inhaled half an inch of cigarette, then flicked ash on the floor, not bothering with the ashtray. She did that every time she was annoyed with being here, which was always.
“Please use the ashtray, Carol.”
“I missed.”
“You didn’t miss.”
Detective-2 Carol Starkey took another deep pull on the cigarette, then crushed it out. When she first started seeing this therapist, Dana Williams wouldn’t let her smoke during session. ...That was three years and four therapists ago. In the time Starkey was working her way through the second and third therapists, Dana had gone back to the smokes herself, and now didn’t mind. Sometimes they both smoked and the goddamned room clouded up like the Imperial Valley capped by an inversion layer.
Starkey shrugged.
“No, I guess I didn’t miss. I’m just pissed off, is all. It’s been three years, and here I am back where I started.”
“With me.”
“Yeah. Like in three years I shouldn’t be over this shit.”MoreLess
