Chapter 106: Maybe whiskey will work?
“I’ll be home later tonight. Don’t watch TV all day.”
Elijah’s words didn’t stir Chasm from where he curled on the man’s couch. As soon as he heard the door click shut, Chasm rolled over and stared unseeingly into Elijah’s apartment. It had been three weeks here on Earth, and Chasm was no closer to being happy here than any of the other places he had lived in his life. Even though Elijah took him all over the city and showed him one thing after another, all of the sight-seeing left Chasm hollow. He missed the view of the mountains, and he missed Norwell even though she lied to him. And he missed… all of Rhylent.
