I stood out front of her second story apartment building staring at the parking lot and the overcast sky. I wanted to go to the desert, towards Arizona or Las Vegas, quit everything and just go. Why not, you know? So I drove my car onto the freeway with the intention of going somewhere but traffic was heavy and forty minutes later I exited to a red light swaying with the wind. Next to me a couple in a car sat without speaking. Jeopardy would be on in 30 minutes and tomorrow was a Friday. I decided to go home. (sb)
