Jessica again said her goodbyes to her friends as they undressed and dropped their personal belongings in their named boxes. Jessica walked up the 5 s...eps onto the stage where the man was waiting to mount her on the Jessica 3000. Once Jessica was at the top of the stairs, just a few feet away from the Jessica 3000, and her impending doom. She walked very slowly as she approached the machine and her smiling executioner.Standing next to the Jessica 3000, breathing one of her last breaths she will. Then in walked Jen and Maria.“What the f*ck!” Jen accused; “Holy sh*t” Maria gasped.We froze and stared, a bit bleary eyed, at them. We could smell the weed wafting off them, and they were carrying those red plastic cups that seem to be universally used for campus drinks. Maria slowly closed the door behind her, then they both plopped heavily onto the bed across from us and just stared, mouths agape under the heavy lidded eyes of those who are totally baked.Then Jen put her hand over her mouth. You’ll want to spend the night alone, so come in through the vehicle entrance and stay in the guestroom in the basement. We’ll have your permanent room ready for you by tomorrow morning.”Margaret stood with her hand held out to Martin. He smiled at us, then walked out with her hand in his.Adam looked at Andrea and asked, “Don’t you think someone should go with them?”Before anyone could respond, Suma stood and reached for Eric’s hand. “Come with me, Eric. You and I need at least one more lesson. I love green. I love uniforms. I love men. What can I say; I was in heaven! Men jumping around in green camouflage uniforms with big guns. You saw them sneak, they were not men anymore, they were not humans. They were lost inside their dreams of war without death, or so I thought and pictured it.This time he spoke to me some more, asking if I was fucking Jens. I answered truthfully. He wondered if he was any good. I told him that I don't go tell peoples friends how they are in bed. it.
