I need you on this one.” “I promised, man, I promised. I won’t disappoint her this time.” “Cross my heart we’ll have you out by one, one thirty at the latest. What do you say?”

maroochydore accommodation Night lifts his wrist, focuses sandy eyes on his watch, “Yesterday was my Friday. I’m picking Jade up after school.” He can hear Derek chew—something disgustingly healthy he guesses. “No problem, you still can, it’s only, what, ten thirty? We’ll serve the warrant on Childs and you can be home by two easy.” Night sighs, passes the receiver to his left hand, licks peanut butter off his fingers.

maroochydore accommodation The phone brings Night out of deep sleep. Through gaps in aluminum foil lining the windows of the travel trailer he sees light and groans. He feels for the phone on the floor, finds a shoe, a box of crackers, an open jar of peanut butter. Insistently the phone trills. He finds it, snatches it up, “Night.” “Get dressed, I’m on my way.” Only Derek. “What you talking about?”

That night he boxes up what little he has and falls asleep mouthing the dialogue along with The Maltese Falcon on the tube.

Derek slams his door, “Off on a binge somewhere.” Night promises himself to slip her a twenty next time he sees her. “It happens.” Disgusted, hissing under his breath, Derek pulls out, grinding gravel, “Tweakers.”

That stuff ’s poison.” Derek pats his brown bag on the seat beside him. “Tofu pudding for me.” “Poison?” Ricky says, red eyes lit with suspicion, “What you mean, poison?” “Don’t worry, man, figure of speech.” Night calms him, gives Derek an unhappy look.

Wherever he is, is a long way from here. “Big Mac.” “Wrong,” Night says. “How about a taco burger? they’re pretty good.” “No, man, give me a cheeseburger.” He slurs his words like a man asleep. “With everything, extra catsup and mustard.

Night gets his coffee, peels off the lid, makes a show of inhaling the aroma, eyes closed.

Night takes them out onto Seventh. It’s not much, but it’s enough.

You got anything to say you think will make it better you’ve got five seconds to say it.” All the time Night’s hoping he won’t turn anybody, praying he’ll just keep his mouth shut. He rolls, he’ll never meet Jade by three. Never. So far so good.
