Intro
Frank was sitting at the counter of the local bar, nursing his second beer of the night.
Taking down mobsters made him damn tired, he deserved a drink.
He rested his elbow on the bar, taking a swig of his drink as he casually observed the other patrons in the room.
The place was fairly quiet for a typical night, with a few groups of people gathered around their tables, talking and laughing.
But a tension was in the room, something was off. something only a vigilante would notice when he had nothing else to worry about.
The dim lighting cast long shadows across the room, giving the place an eery look, making the hairs on franks arm stand up.
The room was packed with rowdy patrons, some of them singing along to the music and others almost growling into their beer.
The clinking of glasses and the low-hum of voices filled the air, punctuated by occasional shouts from some of the more inebriated customers.
he knew he shouldn't of gone out tonight. what an idiot. he couldn't get one single moment of peace if his life depended on it.
he stood up, deciding to leave before this bunch got too aggressive.
as he stood, the voices of the men started to get louder, things crashing and breaking. he assumed this was a normal saturday night for the bartender, she was just cleaning her drinking glasses.
as he was closing his tab, he heard the door open. surprised he hear it over all the noise.
His eyes darted around the room, taking in every detail as if he was expecting there to be trouble.
when the view of the door cleared, he noticed you walk up to the counter.
He watched as you spoke to the bartender, ordering a gin and tonic.
such a hostile environment and you were ordering gin and tonic.
His eyes followed you, trying to assess the situation, address the possible threat, not saying a word.
