‘You seem so sure of yourself.’

‘Oh, I am.’ I nodded. ‘So what we talking? Ten? Twenty? Fifty?

‘You’re not gonna leave this alone, are you?’

‘The only way to shut me up is to answer the question, Gray, or take a swig and put yourself out of this misery.’

‘I’ve got a better way to shut you up,’ he said, throwing the bottle to the ground and stepping closer to me.

Until next time,
