Meanwhile, as darkness sets in on the other side of town, (not this town, the town where Richie lived in 99). Debbie sits patiently as she organizes her nail files for tomorrow, wondering why Richie is so damn late. Sure, he has been late before, but this time it just feels longer. Last time this happened (yesterday), she tried calling her old buddy Jenny for a ride but there was no answer. Come to think of it, she didn't answer the night before either. In a few minutes she is going to try Jenny's number again, because; it's looking like Richie is too "BUSY" to fire up the bike and come pick her up. Hopefully Jenny answers her phone tonight or Debbie will end up walking home again.
