Tobin finally caught sight of an open corner store, the kind that sell cheap liquor and junk food. Tobin slunk in like a weasel, careful to keep her face away from the security cameras, and looked around casually. Ember mewed and Tobin patted her head to quiet her. 'Ember is hungry...'

And as we ran from the cops
We laughed so hard it would sting
