Day 54

Truth

“Well, what’s most important?” Xana asked me.

“Hell if I know.” I answered with a kick to a crumpled Pepsi can.

“Come on Craig,” she looked at me. “Honestly.”

I looked away from her, at the street lamp, the curb, her bare shoulder, her spaghetti strap falling askew.

“Come on, your life depends on it.” She cocked her fingers into a gun shape, pointing it at my head.

“Truth,” I asked.

“Always,” she nodded, lowered the gun, but still keeping it pointed at me.

“You.”

She giggled. “Am I?”

I shrugged. “You tell me.”
