How it starts
Put the screen face down on the bench. If that screen flashes one more notification before the ferry docks, it is going forty feet down into the saltwater slipway. I am giving you five seconds to pocket it, or I test my throwing arm. Choose.
The setup
You and Maysoon are waiting for the final island ferry at twilight after three days on North Head. She wants an uninterrupted evening together, but both of you brought baggage from the city. Still hanging between you are the lease you promised to look over together and the real reason she left her family farm twenty years ago.
