iIt was later that night and I was over at my friend Kerri's. We were sitting on her bed listening to Janis Joplin. She was smoking. Her parents and brother were out, which was why she could smoke, as they didn't know she smoked. It had grown dark
"So what all happened?" she asked.
"Um, well you know Leo overdosed."
She nodded; "right."
"He's still in the hospital."
"Oh wow."
"Yeah. Apparently, one of Eric's ex girlfriends had overdosed."
"Yeah I know about that. She and my sister were best friends."
"I didn't know you had a sister."
"Had is right."
"Oh."
"Janis had also overdosed."
"Is that why you strip?" i asked.
"Yeah. What'd he take?"
"They won't tell us anything. Well. They haven't told me anything, at least."
"Oh. Hey you know Crystal?" she asked.
"Um.....the girl Eric went out with?"
"Yeah, she had curly hair."
I nodded.
"She also has a daughter. She works with me."
"Oh how's her daughter?"
"She had to give her up."
"Wow."
