EXCOLO

I'm running out of useful things to do while iwait for him to leave so I just do fidgety stuff like laying out the shirt just so and then adding the bra on top of it and then moving it. I look up when he says my name, I wait but he doesn't say anything for a long moment just runs his hand into his hair. Then he picks back up,I got into this town with my pockets empty, praying like hell for a good year. And—and you made it a good year. So far. I open my mouth but I have no idea what to say to that. Not sure I should be offended or not. He closes his eyes then opens them. Know what he's going for right after he moves. Oh no! He shouldn't have to do that! I take a couple step over and say, "You c'n leave that. I'll deal with it." I grab the coffee and finish it. I didn't mean to sound so sharp, but I just want him to go. Now.
