The Cat's Meow
“Only the streetlights and my headlights provided any glow. I turned a corner, and then glanced at Kale. He sat with arms crossed, staring out the window—at what, I had no idea. The rain hadn’t returned and all the houses in the area had their lights off. I doubted he saw much, meaning he did it to avoid me.
