BREAK THE INTERNET GHOSTFACE
THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX HOURS AGO Ghostface wakes at 5:45 AM, fifteen minutes before the alarm. Thinks about turning over. The noise from the city is too loud. Gets out of bed. Pulls aside the single blackout curtain, squints at the gray smear of dawn over buildings. Pees, yellow. Brushes his teeth. Makes a single cup of coffee in the kitchen of the pre-fab studio apartment, brings it to the open laptop on his desk. Stretches black headphones over shaved head, still playing music from the night before; listens to bass instead of six lanes of traffic, naked toes curled over desk chair. He has left his terminal on the cinderblock nightstand, has forgotten to turn off the alarm. He hears it through the headphones, rises. Leaves the coffee on the desk, cancels the alarm. Pulls on yesterday’s jeans, folds terminal into pocket. He doesn’t want to shower, not today, not when he’s so awake. He dresses. Long black coat, black trousers. Feet go into worn black boots, leather laces. The floor vibrates when the 6:08 tram passes. The computer chimes. Ghostface sits, scuffs booted feet across wood-substitute, reads. Twelve posts, discussion of old-century cult fashion designers. Flexes his feet, feels the leather give. Types a quick response, grabs a puck of hard, black plastic, stands.
Ghostface takes the 6:32 tram. Caffeine, or not enough of it, makes his head throb. Light spools grey-silver through clouds, reflects off the ribbon of the elevator. Thirty thousand miles above him, a tree grows. “That ribbon is the future,” his father told him fifteen years ago. It is 8:04 when Spacepope slides up next to him and offers him coffee. He has been waiting since seven, but Spacepope is only four minutes late and doesn’t apologize. Ghostface takes the coffee, drinks. The puck is shoved into the pocket of the long coat. He removes it, hands it to Spacepope. “Thanks,” is all that Spacepope says. He leaves Ghostface alone, with the coffee, staring at the ribbon that pierces the clouds. The terminal chimes. His girlfriend knows he rises early. Asks if she’ll see him when she gets off work in the evening. Yes, he says. Don’t be late, she says. He smiles. Tardiness does not exist in the Ghostface-universe, is an unforgivable failure. He has no more deliveries, no more customers requesting tight packets of predatory software. He wonders how to kill the time.
