Then there was another one of those techs. I'll call her Khrystal. She was there past couple of times. I think I was afraid of her because she reminded me of Elle. Eyes like a brittle stone. Blue gray, I think. I think she had blonde hair just past the shoulders. She had this quietness to her. I only asked her a few things.
But I remember a moment of compassion. I was there in the main room by the tv. I don't know. Maybe because I had relied on her previously... She was watching me. I looked back at her. Now most people would look away, pretend to be busy, you know, hide. But she looked right back.
I was glad someone was watching. She didn't look angry or afraid. Concerned. maybe a touch sad. Nice when someone notices. Nice not to be the one caught watching.
She watched the night, so I didn't have to.
