Caine awoke to a beautiful sunny morning and buzzing.
It shook the windows. It resonated off the floorboards. It touched the back of his neck and gave him metalmouth.
No.
First stop: Zazie's room. Bugboy was fast asleep.
Next stop: Dominique's room. Little bit of breathing. Not her this time.
Finally: Midvalley. The buzzing was getting louder as he got closer.
Yes.
Caine snatched the kazoo out of the other man's hands and crushed it into powder. "Try something else" he whispered.
Next morning, Caine awoke to a beautiful sunny morning and the pervading thump of a pair of bongos.
