Al rounds the corner, hands in pockets and head hung low.
Ginger’s waiting; she’s been waiting a while.
“You’re late Al” she says in that calm, matter-of-fact way that Al knows so well.

“There’s always a riot going on on the underground” she says.
He exhales a sweet-scented cloud of dimensions disproportionate to his skeletal frame.
“I'm here now”
Ginger puts her hand out, palm up, “Keys” she says.
