Part II 18(14/23)

them clatter to the tile floor. Pausing by the vanity, he

empties his pockets—dead Blackberry, keys, wallet, the

keychain. I can only imagine what I look like in the mirror

from this angle. When he’s finished, he marches directly

from this angle. When he’s finished, he marches directly
