the gas station is old, isolated on a country road. bitsey sits in the car's driver seat. zack stands by the booth. zack paces in front of the booth, checks his watch. zack sees lights coming toward him. gets into the phone booth, drops two coins, dials six numbers. he hesitates to punch the seventh, checks the road. the approaching lights belong to a car. he quickly hangs up. zack hugs himself in the waning drizzle.
