I signaled to the bartender for another round. At this point, he didn’t even
need me to raise two fingers. Hell, anytime he saw my glass empty, he
knew I needed another. He also knew when to cut me off, which was about
closing time.
I nodded my appreciation and took a drink of my whiskey, savoring the
rich flavor. Usually, I went for the cheap stuff. With as much as I drank, I
couldn’t afford to get the good stuff every night, but today was different.
Today was a day to get drunk off my ass and take the prettiest girl in the
bar home. And it had nothing to do with family, work, or personal issues. It
was Tuesday, and there was no fucking better reason to drink the good stuff
than the mere fact that it was a Tuesday.
“I gotta ask,” Edu said, sliding onto the stool beside me. “What the hell
is your secret?”
Ignoring him, I took another drink. At some point, these guys took it
upon themselves to try and draw me into their inner circle, to try and make
me one of them. Fuck if I knew why. I didn’t pay attention in meetings, I
never spoke to anyone unless absolutely necessary, and every time someone
invited me to some family bullshit, that was a big fucking no.
In fact, there wasn’t a goddamn thing about any of these guys that made
me want to get all chummy with them. There were two kinds of people in
this world. There were the people who needed someone—who believed no
man was an island and all that bullshit. Then, there were the other kind of
people—the men who really just wanted to be left alone.
I was the latter.
I was the good-time guy who liked to drink and party—mostly on my
own or with a friendly female companion or two. I didn’t give a shit about a
whole lot, and I definitely didn’t talk with other guys in bars. What was the
point? I wasn’t here for them. I was here for me—to get rip-roaring drunk
and go home with a nice piece of ass.
But for some unknown reason, something glitched in my brain right as I
was taking a drink and I actually turned to Edu and talked to him. “My
secret to what?”
