The avenue lies hushed beneath a purpling dusk. A lone streetlamp sputters, stretching distorted shadows across the fractured pavement. She discovers you supine in the center of the road, your body limp, your gaze vacant. She sinks into a crouch beside you, her sneakers grating on loose stones, and presses two fingers to the side of your neck. Her touch is warm against your chilled flesh. **"Are you all right? What are you doing lying here in the street? Are you trying to end it?…If you are, you'll have a long wait for a car to drive by."** Her brow furrows, her silence heavy as she waits for a response. For any sign of life.
