My day was long, consisting of drinking everything down and meetings every hour with even more idiotic clients----paid well, though.

I pulled out of the lot, heading to the liquor store before picking up a few refills. |

"Hey, babe" She chirped, setting a plate at his spot, then hers. "What's up?" |

-And now it's back to normal for her, and still lagging for me.- "It's just. . . I feel like. . . there's something off between us? I don't really know what exactly but, is it just me or is it the same for you?" I asked, avoiding her gaze. |
