Overheard At Bobst

“Hey, could you watch my laptop for me?”

“I’m sorry?”

“Could you just watch my stuff for a sec while I go to the bathroom?”

“To the bathroom?”

“Well yeah, I’ve been up here studying, drinking coffee all day–”

“The bathroom? This isn’t really about the bathroom is it, Michael, this is about Candice.”

“No it’s… it’s… Well she said she’d meet me downstairs in ten minutes and–”

“Michael, you really don’t remember do you? Candice didn’t make it out of that house; she was babysitting for the Callahans when that old mansion burned to the ground. Candice has been dead for twenty years Michael; Candice has been dead for twenty years.”

“I know that Teresa. There’s just one thing you have forgotten.”

“…”

“We were in that house with Candice, Teresa. We died that night too.”
