Midlife Crisis

by

Rob Rosen

Jack is thirty-five and single once again. He is not, as he as quick to point out, going through a midlife crisis. Still, it would be nice to have a partner, and so he sets out on an adventure to find the one-time love of his life, Bing, a man he hasn’t seen in more than fifteen years, a man who has seemingly vanished off the face of the planet. With the help of his family and friends, not to mention the family dog and his high school bully, he goes searching for Bing, only to unearth an ages-old mystery that puts them all in grave danger. In this hysterically funny tale, the question remains right on up to the surprise ending: can we return to our past in order to better our future?

Excerpt

We had lunch, we went home. I went to my room. I felt twelve. I felt awful.

I called Monroe and filled him in. There was silence on the other end of the line before he said, “So, do you think he’s, you know, dead?” The last word came out in a whisper, though it rang out all too clear.

“Bing?” I replied. “I…I don’t know. But Rosemary O’Malley clearly is and no one has seen the father or the son. One and one generally equals two, but I’d still like to believe he’s just lying low, living off the grid.”

“Big Sur would be the place to do it,” Monroe said. “Easy to disappear down there, to get lost in the woods and stay lost.”

I nodded to myself. What he said was true. I’d been to Big Sur many times over the years. No cell phone coverage. Nothing but high trees and massive cliffs and endless ocean. If you had to go off the grid, you couldn’t ask for a more scenic place to do it in. The grid, in fact, stopped around Carmel and barely edged beyond that.

“Bing was a straight-A student in high school, an overachiever,” I said. “He wouldn’t have dropped out of college unless he had a good reason.”

“But what’s that reason?” my friend asked.

 I frowned. “I wish I knew, Monroe. I wish I knew.”

He paused. I heard him snap his fingers across the line. “Paul and I were thinking of taking a long weekend down in Monterey. They have a new otter exhibit at the aquarium. What if we made a side trip to Big Sur from there, took some of those pictures you have of Bing with us, ask if anyone knows him, has seen him? We could go this weekend.”

My frown faltered. “You wouldn’t mind?”

He laughed. “Of course I’d mind. That’s a long-ass drive, even from Monterey. But they don’t call me Cagney for nothing, Lacey.”
