Night – Later That Same Day

Shane pulled her cigarettes and lighter out of her pocket. She lit one
and then set the pack down on the table. Do you see him?

Jenny was still looking around the room. No, she finally said. She
turned to Shane. Maybe that was his first time coming here.

I doubt it. Shane took a drag off her cigarette. “Look, Im gonna get a drink. You want anything?

Jenny thought for a second. Umm, just – just get me what ever youre having.

Shane smiled. Okay, Ill be right back.

When Shane came back to their table she was holding a cold beer in each
hand. She handed one of them to Jenny and then sat down.
Jenny thanked her and then took a sip. She swallowed hard. Oh my God, Shane thats him.

Shane looked around. Where? Jenny pointed at the man who had just walked in. That guy?

Yeah. Jenny watched him as he sat down at the bar.

Shane looked at her seriously. Youre sure?

Jenny nodded. Positive.
Okay. Shane got out of her chair. Stay here.

What are you gonna do? Jenny asked, her voice full of concern.

Im gonna find out what his name is.

Jenny grabbed her arm. Shane

Dont worry. Shane smiled, trying to calm her. Jenny reluctantly let go of her arm.

Shane walked to the bar and squeezed herself between the guy that Jenny
had pointed at, and the young woman sitting next to him. They both
looked at her, clearly irritated, but she pretended like she didnt
notice.
Hey! Shane shouted at the bartender. He was serving a drink to
a man a few seats down, but heard her. She held up her bottle of beer.
Can I get another one?”
The bartender nodded and pulled out another beer from under the
counter. When he went to hand it to her, Shane reached across the bar
and nudged the man Jenny had pointed at nearly knocking his drink over
as she grabbed her beer.
Hey watch it, the guy snapped at her.
Oh, sorry. Shane straightened. Didnt mean to bump into you.

The guy just glared at her and took a sip of his drink. Shane got the hint and turned and went back to her table.
Well? Jenny asked.

Grinning, Shane, reached into her back pocket and pulled out the guy’s wallet.
Jenny gaped at her, shocked. How did you get that?
