          ‘ you are a FANCY gentleman! ‘ the ant flies steadily beneath him, iridescent wings beating in an astonishingly even tempo, unbothered by the gusting breeze and the cold rain. rain drops are huge. how has he never thought about how HUGE raindrops are? one is enough to soak him through, and this pelting rain has him searching the ground for some kind of shelter they can fly through, something that will shield them from this fucking ridiculous amount of water.          he spots it. a tunnel that looks crowded with cars, bright enough with flashing headlights that they’ll be able to see, out of the rain and lightning. his tiny taxi turns toward it amicably enough. the science behind this is so far above his head it makes his brain hurt, though of course that never keeps hank from spouting it imperiously ANYWAY.

          ‘    WHAT   IF   WE   JUST   .   .   .   RAN   AWAY   ,                                                  you   &   i   ?                gathered  our  things   ,   our  horses   ,                       made  a  run  for  it  in  the  middle  of  the  night   ? 

high school has ended , and apparently so has john bender’s life . once he graduated  –––– it was a surprise to them all  –––– he was sure that that would be a new beginning , a start to his freedom . john would finally get away from his parents , the life they made him live , and he could start over .

apparently , it wasn’t that easy .

turns out , jobs weren’t that easy to come by . and no job meant no money . no money meant no where to live . the landlord of his shitty new studio apartment was understanding enough , but he was behind on rent already , and he needed work . the mechanic shops in town required experience  –––– real experience ; the kind you get by working professionally with cars . so even though john was good with his hands , good with automobiles , it wasn’t enough . well , how was he supposed to get experience if they wouldn’t hire him ? it’s a last resort , driving up to the flower shop he’d read about in the paper  –––– DELIVERY BOY NEEDED ASAP . a crumpled up resume is in his hand ; it lacks finesse and extracurriculars , but it’s all he had . the boy  –––– no , the newly found man   –––– walked into the shop with low expectations , dawning the nicest clothes he owned , up to the counter where a woman waited . ‘ you’re hiring , right ? i read your article in the paper , ’
