“SO WHERE am I going?” Ken asked, following Patrick’s direction through dark and almost deserted streets.

“Work. I’ve got some stuff I’ve been meaning to replace before the holidays. With Thanksgiving coming up, we’re not going to have any downtime, and with the terminal closed anyway, I can actually get them replaced.” He shrugged nervously. “It’s something to do.”

“Want to go to my place instead? There’s no traffic, so it’d be a short drive.”

Patrick fidgeted beside him. “I would like to go to your place, but this is one of the only chances I might ever have to show you where I work. And the fuses really do have to be replaced, so we’ve got a built-in excuse.”

“I’ve seen the docks before.”

“Not like this. Come with me. I’ve seen your office lots of times, and I’d like to show you mine. If your knee’s up for it.”

“How high is it?”

“Uh, about four flights of stairs and some ladders.”
