City Tower

There was a large and tall building that was almost like a mini-city. On one of the lower floors was the library. The library was due to open in a little while and I unlocked the door. I was still standing outside when Acra pulled up in his car. The road was a spiral that circled the outside of the building. He offered me a ride to the top and I said okay, thinking he meant after work. But then he indicated that I should get in the car. I went ahead and got in and when we got to the higher floor he said he had to rush away because he was on his way somewhere and hadn't left himself time for this extra trip. I thought how ironic it was that I'd made him late when I hadn't really needed a ride at all. Before he left, I told him that he should come to a party that was happening later that night. I told him I was sure he'd be welcome. In truth, I wasn't 100% sure because I think I myself was planning to crash it. It was some fancy affair being put on by a fraternal society or masonic lodge or some such.

I waved goodbye and started back down to the library taking the inside stairs. There was some weirdness about a missing dog or some other kind of animal and I came across a strange scene on one of the stair landings. There were signs that the animal had been chased around by people on bikes or large Tonka toys and that it had finally been intentionally run over. Only the bikes and some small amount of blood remained. The police were there and knew pretty certainly who had done it.

I continued the trek downward. At one point it was suddenly evening and I was at the fancy party. I felt bored and like I didn't fit in. I left and went back to the library. It was 9:30 AM and everyone else was there. I proclaimed that I wasn't really late, that I had unlocked the library and got it open before 9. Everyone laughed at me and said they knew.
