Construction Road Darling

The whole area (8th c) was in upheaval. The roads had no traffic, and there were no roads. I noticed one man wearing construction gear and stopped the car to rant about me needing to get to my kid’s school.

….

He sat in the driver’s seat and began driving. He was a man of a few words, said he was married, bullied. I guessed he also had a child, he nodded I think. He did not offer anything but he was offering everything. I felt extremely close to him, like I know him.

#scene: underground cafe.

Young people. We were the ‘it’ couple. We danced. I risked but he caught me cause he was a great dancer.

Couldn’t get him out of my being the next morning.
