we had taken the taxi to a musty smelling alleyway. johnny ignores me, continuing to walk. at the end of the alleyway sat a ladder which he began to climb.
"john, what are you doing?"
it is so dark i can barley make out his face as he swings around to speak to me. "just trust me."
"i'm scared of ladders, you know?" i say as i grip tightly onto the ladder.
"you'll live," he says, but not in a reassuring way. it was sarcastic.
"seriously, how high up is this ladder?"
"we are almost there.."
i sigh, wishing to hug my coat tighter, but due to my circimstances of being forty-five feet in the air, i could not without falling a greatly death.
