  • Foggy Windows

    Photo by Jr Korpa on Unsplash  I watched the window of the cafe fog and I knew what I needed to do.  If I could get across the street without being seen, no one would be the wiser.  I knew I only had ten minutes before Alex would return, so I headed toward the door.  The rain would cover any tracks I would leave behind for Alex.  I could…
