“Give me a sec, I have to go to the bathroom”

“I’ll be waiting” and she disappears in the crowd, I turn to face the bar and I cant get this stupid smile off my face. The bartender smiles

“Your lucky you know” She’s whipping the counter

“Why is that?” she looks at me

“She loves you… I could see it a mile away… and you are crazy for her that much is clear” I smile

“Thank you I guess I am”

“Oh sorry, I’m Max”

“Shane”

“Yea I know who you are….Nice to meet you Shane…. You know… I’m happy she’s with you and not with that bitch she usually comes…. Now that I think about they haven’t come here in a while…jum…”

“Wait who?”

“Well that woman over there… she’s been watching you all along… I think she jealous” I look at were she’s pointing and I can’t believe what I’m seeing… she’s coming towards me… I just… can’t… fuck… she’s… it’s….

“Cherie…” Carmen said from behind me… she has a shocking look on her face. Cherie… Cherie fucking Jaffe is Carmen’s girl… the one everyone talks about… the one who I hate… that fucked up lady who ruined my life here… Cherie… Jaffe… Can this get any worse…?

“Hey Cat” she doesn’t know her name is Carmen… Cherie went towards her and kissed her… Carmen didn’t know what do to “missed me?” She smiles. What the fuck!??

“I thought… I thought you were dead…”

“Yea a lot of people thought that… but I’m here honey… I’m back”

“You…C… it means Cherie? Doesn’t it?” Carmen looks at me knowing what I mean. She looks scared. She looks confused…

“You…you didn’t know…” now she realized I’m not Shane from this world.. NOW!!

“Cherie is the woman who everyone is fucking talking about… the one who fucking owns you!!”

“Look Shane lets talk out side ok?” I can’t move, I can’t think. I cant do nothing,… and Carmen is in the same position. We get out of that place.

“So… you’ve been taking care of my things for me I understand Shane?”

“Things?”
