"B-a-r-a-q-u," I spelled it out for him. "It is a Sumerian name, but any religion that man practiced was a long, long time ago. In fact, the fate of Western Christendom as well as Islam is being decided in China as we speak, so get with the program.""This 'Khanate' situation? Strategically speaking, the Chinese should settle their hash soon," Up pronounced. "At the same time, the Russians will close in from the north and that's that," he sounded confident."Whatever," I shrugged. "Let's get a bit to eat," I suggested to everyone else."Up, don't send the police after us, or have someone tail us...please," Pamela requested as she stood. Up didn't reply, which was okay. We weren't expecting a truthful comeback.Outside, the girls got all cuddly (YES!!). I had one final piece of business to perform. How were we going to find the rest of our company? I was going to use a United States espionage technique that (almost) never failed. I was going to pretend to be a Canadian. I borrowed Anya

"Yeah...they called at like 2, said your furniture didn't get loaded on the truck. Said they'd have it here on Monday.""Great...just great.""Sorry.""Not your fault, sorry if they made you sit on your ass and wait for them.""It was no big deal... did some reading for class and watched football."She went into the room, looking around, it least it had curtains, and a decent sized walk-in closet. She parked her suitcase by the closet door, turning back to see Evan leaning against the doorframe, watching her."Look, I'm willing to make a sizeable bet that you got rolled by your mom just like I did. I'll do my best to not make this anymore awkward than it has to be. If you leave a sock on the door knob or whatever it is you do these days, I will respect that. I'm not reporting anything back to your mom either. If you want to have some girl over for Netflix and chill just let me know and I'll stay out of the way. Fair enough?""Yeah...thanks.""No problem, thanks for letting me crash he

"Yeah... it is... but should I be offended she decided to flirt with him?""Nahhh... he's smarter than you. A lot smarter than you.""Dick.""I call it like I see it.""It's probably better she isn't. I'm getting enough of that at home.""Is it really that bad to have a hot roommate?""Imagine if Cassie's sister moved in with you, spent all day in skimpy outfits. Might be fun for a day or two.""Yeah, I can see that.""Yesterday she was sitting on the couch, watching TV, wearing this baggie t-shirt. I thought thank God for baggie clothes. Then she puts her hand behind her head, elbow out. Every time I look over that way I can see right down the sleeve and of course, she's not wearing a bra.""I bet she's got a nice pair too...""She does, God she does...last week it was these yoga pants...serious camel toe."They stopped at Evan's truck."And don't get me started on yoga. I was trying to study the other night, sitting at the table with my laptop. She moves the coffee table and starts

Tried to reach beyond the emptiness but neither one knew how.Enjoy..*****How many decisions did you have to get just exactly wrong to wind up at this moment in your life?That thought was a regular guest in Brad's mind. He stood in front of the store looking across the mall at the garish Santa's village as the last child of the season was sitting on the jolly fat man's lap. Sharing his hopes and dreams and it made it all so much worse than normal.He'd been someone once, full of hopes and dreams, ready to go out and do great things... then a stupid prank went sideways...The alarm on his watch sent that train of thought off its tracks.He silenced the alarm, looking at his watch for a moment. The last nice thing he owned. A graduation gift from his mom. She must have saved a long time for it, he sometimes wondered if she'd been tempted to return it.Pulling the key out of his pocket he went to the control panel on the wall.The clank of the metal gate descending was just loud enoug

But to the other side of the bed, behind him. The sleeping bag and sheet lifted, he felt her slip underneath them. Inching closer, trying to ensure she didn't wake him. Her arm went around him. He fought the urge to flinch as her cold hand touched his stomach. She was pressed against him now. Her forehead against the base of his skull. The tip of her nose on the back of his neck, feeling the warmth of each breath on his skin. She shook a little, then again, a sob, then another. He felt warm liquid on his neck, and realized she was crying, her tears flowing onto him. Brad wasn't sure how long it lasted; he felt her arm around him relax, and he knew she was asleep again.She was sleeping on her stomach when he woke up. He quietly got up and dressed. Picking up a book from the battered IKEA bookshelf in the corner he went into the living room, sat on the couch and started to read.It was a little after 9 when she emerged from the bedroom.
