Must this woman drink?
Leah paused and slowly said, “That was just an accident. I’ll be careful this time.”
She then looked at him. “Are you alone?”
“Well, do you see anyone else? Oh, you’re sitting on my friend,” he casually said.
Leah looked at her seat. “Sitting on your friend?”
Morrison poured a glass for himself, smiled, and considered scaring her. “Yes, do you want to know more about it?
But it’s best that you don’t know. You might not be able to sleep tonight.”
Leah picked up her mojito and took a drink. “I’m even more curious now.”
Morrison saw that she wasn’t tricked, so he clicked his tongue. “You’re so daring. Let me tell you then. My friend
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtjumped off a building not too long ago and died terribly. Her head split open. You’re sitting on her, and she’s not
happy about it at all, so be careful tonight. She might stand next to your bed, and you’ll be in trouble.”
He thought that would scare her away, but Leah laughed instead. “You’re telling me a horror story, huh?” Morrison
didn’t know what to say.
She placed down the glass. “Why did your friend jump? Life is short, and we’re going to die anyway. So, why did she
want to end it early?”
Morrison slapped his forehead. She believed him and wasn’t even scared.
He poured more wine. “Are you not scared at all?”
“Why should I be scared?”
Leah looked at him. “I heard a lot of horror stories ten years ago, and I was afraid then, but then years later, I don’t
feel the same anymore. Dead people aren’t scarier than living ones.”
Morrison laughed dryly. “Oh, I thought you were one of the silly girls. I guess you have some brains too.” “Why
would I not have brains?”
“Well, were you thinking the last time?” Morrison mocked her. “You left your brain at home. What a woman did was
able to silence you. Besides, you drank so much at the bar that day. Children from elementary school have a better
sense of danger than you.”.
Leah didn’t speak. He was so straightforward, but she didn’t have anything to refute.
Morrison saw that her head was hanging low and didn’t reply, so he thought he had crossed the line. He wouldn’t
know how to act if she started crying.
He cleared his throat. “I just want you to remember. Get a few more drinks and go home. Don’t stay out too late.”
Leah’s eyes darted around. “Why are you here then?”
“We’re not the same. No one would do anything to me even if I ended up under the bridge.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeah paused. “Wouldn’t it affect the town’s image?”
Morrison chuckled. “I’m just joking.”
Leah was feeling a little sad when she came over, but she suddenly felt a lot happier and ordered a few more
cocktails.
Morrison looked at her. “Have you lost your mind?”
She paid. “You’re still here. I’ll buy you drinks as a sign of gratitude.”
Morrison smiled. “You’re going to buy me drinks and send me to the police station like what happened the last
time?”
Leah paused and looked awkward. “It won’t happen again, I promise.”
At Emperon…
Cameron stood in front of the window while holding a cup of coffee. Fireworks went off in the distance, and the light
reflected on the glass, adding color to the night sky.
Waylon walked over and hugged her from behind. “Do you want to go back to the East Islands after this?”
