  "Chris is passing in and out of consciousness. When he's awake he keeps talking about his dad coming to take him to a monster truck show." I clear my throat. "I hope someday, someone finds this tape."

  "Mike?"

  "Yeah, I'm here."

  "There's something I've been meaning to tell you."

  "What is it, dude?"

  "You owe me twenty bucks."

  "You never give up. We agreed we were even when we drew straws to see who'd fix dinner a few days ago, remember?" Well, at least the cat had come in handy.
