I went to get the pumpkin because I didn’t know what else to naming tools do. As I bent down, I saw the car driving off to God naming tools knows where. I set the pumpkin back up cautiously. “Where do you think they’re naming tools going, Al? There’s nothing out there.” I felt that urgency again, like someone squeezing my chest with a cold hand. “Where are they going?” “That’s not the point, son,” Al said with a grin. I hit the top of the pay phone and sighed. What was the point then? The phone receiver hung by my feet and I reached down and replaced it. Hearing the unused coins clatter into the hole at the bottom, I looked up at Al. “Want a Twinkie?” The jogger won’t come back tomorrow. Why come back to a place once you’ve left? I’m looking left still standing next to Al when I see headlights appear in the night.
