I waited outside. The car drove into the nearly empty parking lot. It was nothing new.
I waited outside; it was dusk. The car drove into the nearly abandoned parking lot. It was nothing new.
Time froze as I stood stranded outside after rehearsal; it was dusk. The car roared into the silent prison. It was nothing new.
A person in dark faded jeans with a black-and-white mesh t-shirt under a dark blue sweater stood in the polaroid leaking grey.

But it did not fret, for the lost souls had always returned.
