Glass (Crank 2)

Why not!

Why Not?

Can I really have established

a new connection so easily?

Nothing in life is that simple.

So I ask, just to make sure,

“Are you sure? Because I can

bring the money to you.”

Not that I can really tell him

when, or how. But still…

But he says, I really do get to Reno,

more often than I’d like, in fact.

I’ll have to come over in the next

week or two. We can hook up then.

But you’d better be good for the rest,

or else…He pounds one fist against

the opposite palm, but his smile

lets me know he’s only joking.

His smile. His incredible smile.

Stop it, Kristina! [No, don’t.]

What I Don’t Really Get

Is just why he’s being

so accommodating.

Just what, exactly, is his

game?

Can he possibly be

interested in me, baby

blubber and all? I want

to be back in the

game.
