The Devil I Called Brother — Waiting at the Diner

All right. Tyvia, it's almost 11. The lab is closing. Still in high school? Getting home this late?

Mm-hmm. Where are you? Heading home. Just getting back now? In an Uber?

Mm-hmm. Send me the plate number. Where are you now? Outside the 24-hour diner on the commercial strip. Get out right now and wait inside that 24-hour diner. I'll pick you up.

No need. I can manage.
