Always Alone
One day when Doug walked in, Christina’s curiosity overcame her. She knew that today would be the day when she finally asked Doug about his life. And so she did, politely questioning what Doug had to do for the rest of the day.
But Doug didn’t offer up any answers about the rest of his life to the manager, continuing to eat his sandwich as she questioned him. And with a tip of his hat, he walked out the door when he was done eating, as he always did.
