“Really?” I asked.

“It’s a playful game,” Sebastian said. “We take a guess and throw money into the glass. Then someone goes up to the woman and asks her.”

“Then what?” I asked. “You wait for some woman to beat the shit out of you?”

“Or she plays into it,” Jago said.

“Then we ask to see,” Rome added with a wink.

“You ask women to flash you,” I said.

“That’s right,” Joe said. “Problem with that, Atlas?”

I shook my head. “Who are we looking at?”

“And he’s in!” Jago called out.

He smacked his hand on the table and all of our drinks shook and almost spilled.

I grabbed my glass of beer and curled my lip.

“Green shirt,” Rome said. “Right behind Henry. Standing at the bar with two friends. She’s sideways. It’s tough gauging from the side.”

“I’m going withC,” Sebastian said.

One by one they all took a guess and tossed money into the empty glass.

Then it was my turn.

It felt really stupid to do.

Then again, it was a pleasant distraction from what was going through my mind.

Which was the fact that Hazel and I weren’t together.

Not in that romantic bullshit way.

But just in general.

The way it felt walking into that doctor’s office and into the room.

Like I was some kind of bad man or something.

Like I had hurt Hazel and I didn’t belong there.

“What’s your pick?” Jago asked me.

I dropped money into the empty glass. “SizeG.”

“What?” Rome called out. “Those are not that big. Come on, Atlas. Don’t ruin the sanctity of the game here!”

I shrugged my shoulders and everyone started to laugh.

“Who’s going to talk to her?” I asked.

“I’ll go,” Rome said. “I’ll teach the new guy how this is done.”

Rome jumped up and strutted toward the bar.
