visiting
the TV was On
he walked into the livingroom and
there wasnt anyone in it
Aw wha the hell
that
aggravated him as much as walking into a lighted room at night and finding it empty
when yare done with something
turn it off put it back where you found it dont leave it On or out
he could ask until he was blue in
the face
it was a
propensity handed down to him from his father
his father was frugal
that frugality allowed him to financially
support a family of ten
as the eldest it made sense hed be inclined
as he stepped to the television
to turn it off he paused it was a cop showhe
recognised the young detective he was in
his bedroom he made a faceyanked his tshirt
up to his nose and smelled it he wrinkled his nose and stripped the tshirt off over his head he walked into the bathroom off the bedroom
and started the shower
CUT
next scene he opens the
bathroom door and emerges with a towel wrapped around his waist
NOW he turned the TV off
Who does that
cop lives alone
why shower with the bathroom door
closed
when he lived alone lived with
his wife lived with his girlfriend or visited her place and showered he didnt
shut the bathroom door
hell he
didnt shut the bathroom door when he used the toilet
nobody was looking for the cop
for retribution retaliation
at least not what he had seen of the series
his daughter who lived alone told
him after she checked her doors front and backconfirming they were locked when she went to bed she closed and locked her
bedroom door
the security of one last
barrier to be breached
he understood but it irritated
him that she felt compelled
fucking worthless guys
the TV cop threw him a curve
made him wonder
when he talked with daughter and
mentioned the closed bathroom door she laughed
Dad, when don’t you wonder?
she had a point
