looking

Ivan used to ask me what I did when I wasn’t hanging out at the Exit 8 Big Top Mall and Video Arcade.

I wasn’t like the rest of the animals. Caged, trapped.

I told him I was scrounging for food. And he never questioned it.

When you think about it, though, where’s a better place to find food than the floor of a mall at the end of the day?

Yeah. I wasn’t looking for food.

I was looking for her.

For Boss.
