That Kind of Day

       
      Jessica’s jacket was soaked.  With her glasses tucked safely in her pocket, she couldn’t see the bus coming.


      Not only was the bus late, everything today was late:  the bike messenger, the document from legal.

       Hailing a taxi, she stepped off the curb to cross the street.  Tires screamed.

       The thud was drowned by rain.
