Trapped and with nowhere to go Alan endures the trip to the mall. Mike walks to the bus stop with a very pronounced spring in his step.
It is a very warm day and the heat from the mecadem wicks thru Mikes thick skater shoe soles. His feet begin to sweat more and more. In addition, the smell becomes worse and worse.
The bus arrived almost immediately and was pretty empty. Taking a seat by himself he sat near the window and stretched his legs over the seat dangling his feet off the end, crossing them at the ankles.
There was an older boy in the next set of seats over. Probably about 17 years old. Mike caught him staring at his sneakers a few times as if he knew there was something happening deep inside the canvass material and sweat soaked cotton sock.
From time to he would shake his feet back and forth and break the spell the teen seamed to be under.
He looked up at Mike as the bus came to a halt on front of the mall.
