Z disappeared months ago.

Z thought I had special powers and told me to use them.

Z held tightly to discomfort.

Z was calm on the outside.

Z talked like someone from a movie.

Z lived close to the city where people go to make their dreams come true.

Z sat at a desk and sold products.

Z said it was a relief to hear someone say their words as slowly as I do.

Z could fix a sink and parallel park.

Z was at once confessional and elusive.

I don’t know if Z is dead or alive.
