Yeah, leave it open and you can watch her go to and from work.If you want other routes, I’ll have to add those cameras manually.

Other routes.Does she go other places?I’m sure she does, but I’ve only pictured her in her home and at her desk.I wouldn’t even know what other cameras for Adrian to add.That’s gotta change.

Later that night, the timer chirps.I choose a different angle:her.

Let’s play one truth/one dare

Lindy Girl:

True: I alphabetize my spices.

Dare: Switch two of them.

Lindy Girl:

Monster.Your turn.

True: They call my best friend Monster.Me, Machine.

Lindy Girl:

I’ll ask about that later.Dare: loosen your tie.

You want me undressed, Lindy girl?

Lindy Girl:

True.

I pull my tie all the way off.My thumb finds the hilt.One, two, three.

Lindy Girl:

My dare?

Put your phone on Do Not Disturb, but leave me on.That way it’s just us.

I wait for her excuse for why she can’t, but she does.The little moon pops up.I feel it in my chest like a door sliding shut on the rest of the world.

Lindy Girl:

Your turn.Truth.

True: I haven’t stopped thinking about you since your first message.

Dots.Gone.Dots again.

Lindy Girl:

I haven’t stopped thinking about you either.

Don’t go just giving truths away, Lindy girl.

Your dare: Don’t fix those spices in the morning.

Lindy Girl:

You are unhinged.
