Mark's day

Wednesday night, Mark is in the Apex change room drying his hands when Lev's podcast plays off Rob's phone in the corridor — Rob didn't mean to leave it on speaker. Lev's voice, plain: 'Hayes is the swimmer playing boxer and he's still swimming. My guy Voss has already stopped him once and he's going to stop him again in September,' and Lev names the date, the venue, and the broadcast promoter. Mark puts the towel down and walks out past Rob, who is red and starts to say sorry; Mark holds up his left hand, palm out, doesn't speak. On the way out Rob tells him, quiet, that Lachie took a session at Northside on Monday without telling Mark — Mark nods. He goes home, opens the Manila envelope for the first time since he put it on the counter, reads Dr Reyes's letter standing up in the kitchen, folds it back in, puts the envelope back where it was, and emails Danny Moretti two words: 'film me.'
