DANI'S SHIFT HAD BEEN TWELVE HOURS. eyes flit down to the watch on her left hand. it was closer to thirteen now. she could feel the weariness down to her bones. she didn't know what it was but the patients today had been extra tedious. smith called out and gale got fired in the middle of the shift. it often seemed like dani was the only one capable of getting things done right the first time. she's changed into plainscloths, slips of blonde framing her face just outside of her bun.
she's heading down toward the bus stop when she hears a low murmer behind her. dani peeked her head into the alley and saw a woman pushing something into the back of her car. it was right behind the strip mall. the resturants and laundry mats that were all too clearly a front. dani takes a step closer,"hey!" she said, just loud enough so the woman could hear her. "unless you're friendly with the falcone's i'd get the fuck out of this alley." she didn't want to be in the woman's business but she also didn't want it to turn into a major police presence in the area. "they aren't the friendly types and i'm guessing it's not laundry you're stuffing into your trunk."
