Gunshot.
Clark on the floor.
Her fault.
Last year: a new partner. His eagerness and naivety, her exasperation.
His friendship and trust. Her callousness.
His love. Her rejection.
His pain.
Her blindness.
His faithfulness.
Her…inaction.
Now:
A fearful crowd. A remorseless gangster. Clark’s body on the floor.
Her fault.
