Now let's go back to our story.
Summary of previous episodes: Clarissa is coughing and wanted to watch Everett Cooper on TV but Jason refused, she is due to get her rainbow the next day but she seems scared, to make her feel better Jason leave the TV on. Clarissa tried to explain about rainbows, she is a big fan of Everett Cooper but Jason is not too sure about it. Clarissa complained about her dialophone but Jason needs to go to work. Before completely leaving he is thinking about getting her her rainbow. We flashed back to the meeting Jason had with a rainbow seller at the black market. Jason left Clarissa's room to go to work.
“Hey kid, how was the little one today?” Markus said as Jason entered the garage the smell of oil and dirt hitting him, he would never get used to it.
Markus usually greeted him, wondering about Clarissa. He was a tall and strongly built man, his dark mustache hid his mouth as he spoke.
“Could be better, she has been coughing blood again,” Jason answered.
“You still pretended not to notice?”
“Of course.”
Markus laughed even though Jason could see the worry on his face.

Good description of Markus. I think Jason had better step up getting that rainbow for her! Sounds like she's not doing well.
ReplyDeleteMarkus sounds like a great guy. Does he know Clarissa?
ReplyDeleteIt sounds as though Clarissa needs her rainbow awfully quickly.
ReplyDeleteSure hope Jason can get the Rainbow for her in time
ReplyDeleteSuch a serious situation, hope he gets that rainbow soon!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I like the sound of Markus. He seems caring. I haven't been around in awhile reading all the blogs, so I'm looking forward to learning more about this story : )
ReplyDeletePoor thing. Good to know she has people who care. Great snippet. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope the rainbow helps soon, and Marcus sounds like a good friend.
ReplyDelete"Markus laughed even though Jason could see the worry on his face." Love this line--it says a lot about both Markus and Jason.

Coughing up blood can't be good. like the description of Markus. Could picture him perfectly.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Something strange is going on here-- stranger than usual. I'm enjoying this story.
ReplyDeleteOh no. Coughing blood is never a good sign. I like the interaction between the two men, it speaks of a lot on character in so few words. Nicely done.
