Backstory - Alex and Anna
Anna takes her time walking home from the subway, carrying a bag of what passes for groceries. Just the most basic necessities, as well as cigarettes and the rum she knows that Alex likes, even though she finds it sort of dreadful.
It's been six weeks and she's given him a key to her apartment. She loves him, she thinks, and this is a poor decision on her part. But it's been so long, too long, since she allowed herself to have anything like this. It can't last, she knows this, and she shouldn't let it go too far. Perhaps it's gone too far already.
She reaches the apartment building, and fishes out her own keys. It's one of those old, poorly tended buildings but it's cheap and no one asks questions or looks at you too closely and this suits her. She goes quietly up the stairs, half wondering if he'll be there, waiting for her.
