I head downstairs and, at the corner of 186th and Bennett, I see Julie W. She is standing near the girls school and I try to get her attention but she doesn't see me. I continue towards the station and when I turn onto Overlook, I see Jon E. walking in the same direction.
At the station, I head through the turnstiles and down to the platform, then sit on a bench to wait for the train. A woman with short blond hair and blue eyes is sitting next to me. I can hear the music blasting through her iPod headphones as she sways her torso to the rhythm, occasionally shutting her eyes. She is wearing gray pants, brown loafers, and a long black overcoat, with sleeves that give way to sharp leather gloves.
Also nearby and also listening to music is another, younger, woman, short and with a head that is slightly large for her body. She is wearing giant headphones that can distract almost anyone from noticing how cute her black shoes are. They are the perfect match to her black scarf and black tights.
I notice a rat scurry on the track just before the train arrives.
