Forty-two

Aldo looks at me like I hung the moon.  With the simple words of "I need you." he crumbled again and gave me his everything. And everything meant his morgue supplies.

"What do you need these for?" he said as he bags his things for me. I do not want to tell him it was for Platinum, I know he may not help me anymore. He would be blinded by jealousy if he knew.  If he found out it was for a good looking guy, he will lose it. That's not what I need right now.

"It's for someone."
