“You can’t use a draw four there!”

Max has been doing this since we were kids. Making up his own rules to games which he knows won’t even help him win.

I respond, “Pretty sure I can, bud. ” I place the card down and he groans.

Trick can’t control his laughter and asks, “Why do you even bother, Nik? You know you’re gonna win. He knows you’re gonna win. It’s like torture watching you two. Hilarious torture!”

Ghost watches from the sofa smirking.

Clip Clop, Clip Clop

High heels.

One of my sisters must be here. I don’t get up; they know where to find me.

Clip Clop, Clip Clop

The steps come quicker and harder. I face the doorway to see Tina storm past the ‘chill out’ room obviously going towards my office.

“Tina?” I yell out. I hear her stop walking and she appears at the door.

Holy Hell, she looks pissed!

She looks beautiful, too. Wearing her hair in a messy bun at the top of her head and very little make up. Her skin is flawless. She’s wearing white ankle boots and a black and white patterned knee length dress that has three buttons down the front of the chest; it’s open a little low.

God, she’s hot.

I can see her cleavage but I don’t stare.

She notices there are other people in the room and her face softens.

She says, “I’m sorry. I’ll just go. I don’t want to interrupt your…Is that Uno?” Her face brightens.

I reply, “Uh, yeah. We were just taking a break. Are you okay?”

She walks into the room, sits next to me at the table, takes the cards out of my hands, and starts shuffling.

She sighs and tells me, “I’ll deal this round”

The guys are looking at her like she’s crazy. Ghost gets up and joins the table. Max is looking at her like she’s freakin’ hilarious.

Tina finishes dealing and looks around the table. She introduces herself, “Hi. I’m Tina. I work across the street”.

Trick smiles widely at her. Don’t do that, asshole. He keeps sneaking peeks at her cleavage. He says, “I’m Trick”

Ghost doesn’t even look at her as he utters, “I’m Ghost”.

She scrunches up her face and asks, “As in Casper the friendly Ghost?”

He nods but still doesn’t look at her.

Her face awestruck, she whispers, “That is so cool. ”

Total Goofball.

I clear my throat, look at my cards and ask, “So, You looked like you were ready to kill someone when you came in. I hope that someone wasn’t me?”
