The Comedy is Finished (2011)
“At first he doesn’t understand where he is or what’s going on, but as his eyes focus on the large window with all that water behind it memory returns, frightening and depressing. “So this is Baltimore,” he mutters, but his heart isn’t in it. He shifts position on the couch, then remembers in more detail: He’d been waiting for Mark, half-dreading and half-needing the confrontation, and at some fuzzy time along in there, incredibly, he’d faded away into sleep.
What time is it? His watch isn’t on ...his wrist, it’s—Where the hell is it? Fear and depression are making him cranky with himself.
The watch is on the end table near his head, reading a little after three-thirty. He’d been asleep nearly an hour; so where’s Mark?
Koo sits up, noticing with surprise how much stronger he feels. He’s been using his pills again for six hours now, and while he’s still weak and nervy he’s in much better shape even than when he’d dozed off.
He’s in such good shape, in fact, that he now has leisure to notice he stinks.MoreLess
