[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dharmon</i> <br /><br />It was raining in Los Angeles again as the Sunset Limited pulled out of the station. I sat in silence, as we started moving, watching the city roll by through a rain-streaked window. I took off my jacket, cracked the window and lit up a smoke. The compartment may have been a bit much just for me, but I need the space and quiet. It had been more than a year since Mexico, Kissmy Caboose, the hospital and all that, and I just needed to get away. I was headed to Miami, then on to Havana to meet my Canadian friend Kevin for some sun and cool rum drinks. I had just settled in with a novel, some light reading about the intimate apparel industry, when there was a knock at the door. It was the conductor. <br /> <br />“I just wanted to make sure everything was okay, Mr. Cinderdick”, he said. “My name’s Chad, just let me know if you need anything. Dinner will begin serving at 6:00, unless you want to have something brought here.” <br /> <br />I thanked him and he went on his way to the next compartment. I crushed out the cigarette, laid the book down and closed my eyes, then let the gentle rocking and steady rhythm of the rails ease me into semi consciousness. I thought about the last time I saw Kissmy, standing there next to the phone at the police station, looking helpless as they took her away…. <br /> <br />I awoke to the sound of a man and woman having an argument next door. … <br /> <br />[/quote]NO Skippy, NO! She screamed over and over again...I shook the cobwebs out of my head and...I thought...It sounds like HER!...
