Hey Everyone It's been a while. I've had a rough go at it for a while now; the life of an unemployed graduate who's battle depression and loneliness is a tough one, but I'm pulling through and getting better by the day. Writing is a cathartic experience for me, and I must admit that finding inspiration that goes beyond the first page has been difficult...

Chapter 8: In a Grain of Sand The ride home gave me far too much time to think. About Sid and Alan. About boinking. I started to fret. What will finally happen when we get home? Will I chicken out?
