Phone Call

One day in his apartment Kyle got a call from Token.

"Oh hey dude, I was thinking about you earlier," he answered, smiling.

"Hey. So I just got off the phone with Craig. Stan killed himself."

"What?"

"Yeah. Stan's dead." He seemed to be trying out new words.

"Oh my god," Kyle said.

"I know."

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah. I heard from Craig, who heard from Butters, who's pretty near the home front. I mean, he lives right next to Stan's mom."

They didn't say anything for a second. Then Kyle said,

"I'm gonna go now."

"Okay. Let's talk later."

Kyle hung up and sat there on his bed and didn't move for a long time. Later he had to call Stan's mom.
