How
many
people
are
there
tonight
?
Is
there
a
bouncer?
The
caller breathed heavily.
As
he
put
the
phone
back
on
the
shelf,
he
turned
away
from
where
he
had
been
huddled
with
the
bartenders
to
address
us
all
.
A
few
chattered
over
him
, lighthearted giggles
and
good
natured teases
which
dried
away
sharply
with
his
tone
.
“Shut
the
fuck
up
and
listen
to
me
seriously
right
now
.”
The
tentative camaraderie
the
dozen
of
us
had
cobbled
together
over
the
course
of
one
evening
melted
away
.
“
We
had
a
call
come
in
and
we
talked
about
it
and
considering
everything
”
he
gestured
to
all
of
us
and
the
world
above
“
you
should
know
that
something
felt
off
about
it
.
I
’m
not
saying
you
have
to
leave
but
you
might
want
to
.”
And
as
that
feeling
melted
away
,
the
crowd
did
too
,
eventually
carrying
me
away
with
it
into
the
darkness
of
the
night
.
