Alexander was decked out in a black skull with a matching trench com puffing on a cigarette as the smoke drifted away.
A little girl walking by kept sneaking glances at him, quickly sizing him up before scurrying off.

She pretended not to hear and kept walking.
“I’ll wait for you,” he said.
Elizabeth stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him. She knew he meant it.
Annoyed, she snapped, “You’re just messing up my life.”
