In a comic book store with Lanneau and my friend Peter from high school. I am surprised to see them there. Peter shows me a comic I've never heard of, Pulse Star. Its cover is black with a big pale face, eyes missing. Lanneau's phone rings and I see the name on the display screen says DonnaLee, my aunt. He laughs nervously, says "that's weird. she never calls me,"and ignores the call. Peter says she probably sat on her phone. Then his phone rings again and he doesn't take it out of his pocket. I start looking for Umbrella Academy comics and try to ignore it. Then it rings again and I can tell by the way he looks at me as he answers it that they are having an affair.
