It's Only Fair: EP21

"I'm so excited you're here," she repeated. Like trying to convince us. The train loped around the corner and stopped. It was stuffed full, but we shoved our way on. We found a little corner to stand, surrounded by our suitcases. The train lurched forward. Brianna hadn't been holding on to the bar and she fell backward. An older gentleman caught her as she tumbled, getting a none-too subtle grab of her gigantic tits in the process.

"Hey!" Brianna said, but Amy pulled her sister back.

"Hold onto the bar next time," Amy said. She gave the older man an apologetic smile.

"I think someone's pinching my ass," Jenna said warily.

"Me too," I said.

"I mean, probably?" Amy said. Jenna gave us both a look that was even colder than the outside air.

Eventually, the subway stayed true to its name and dipped underground. A few stops later, we got off at a tiny, dark station that smelled of urine and stale water. We hiked through the turnstiles and pulled our suitcases, bouncing, up the stairs and back out onto the streets.

Despite the cold, it was sunny as all get out and I had to squint from the sudden transition. Amy owned an apartment overlooking the Common, just a few blocks down from the station. We made our way over, like three miniature snowplows pushing pedestrian traffic and out of our way.

There was a doorman at Amy's building, and he buzzed us inside. He tipped his cap to my older sister, then smiled at the three of us. The lobby was refreshingly warm. My fingers and cheeks tingled as the heat returned. The short walk from the train to Amy's building had been enough to freeze me up all over again. I could have left steaks out on the sidewalks and they'd have been perfectly preserved for dinner a week later.

We took the elevator up to eight. The hallway here was carpeted and there were fancy, angular chandeliers hanging every few yards. It was like the fanciest hotel I'd ever seen. And my sister owned a place right in the middle of it. I have to admit, I was already impressed. All of this -- the train station, the building -- I felt like I was visiting some huge celebrity who happened to know my name rather than my actual, older sister.

Amy walked us down the corridor and keyed open her door. It revealed a small, very modern apartment. There was a full kitchen right up front. Next to it was a wobbly, round table with two chairs. Beyond that was a living room with a large leather couch facing a widescreen TV. And behind there was a massive window that opened out to the city.

The view was breathtaking, incredible. I could see the park rolled out in front of us like a green carpet, lined with large buildings on either side. A few snowflakes drifted down. It couldn't have been more picturesque if Pixar had programmed it. My whole body locked into place, stunned by that view. My younger sisters rushed right past me.

There was a small, white paper pharmacy bag sitting on the small table.
