The Mole – sinking city
After years of daily inspections, contorting his body to see his back and behind, pulling his hair apart so he could examine his scalp, checking between his toes as well as the soles of his feet, Chase finally saw something that looked a bit unusual. It was a mole. Well, he wasn’t actually sure it was a mole, but it was some new mark on his skin, and it was easiest for Chase to mentally refer to it as the mole. He found it on his back, slightly higher than the midpoint and just a smidge to the left of his spine. The mole was in a place that easily could have gone undetected unless one had a partner point it out, or, as was the case with Chase, one was carefully checking their skin, using a handheld mirror in combination with the one on his bathroom wall.
