At the bar

    by: Wanderer0426 Author IconMail Icon
Later that day Jack goes to meet Tony at their favorite place, sort of a cool best kept secret type place in town.

Jack finds Tony sitting in their usual booth with a beer waiting on him, "Okay man, here's to Monday somehow getting worse, cheers." he says as the two begin drinking.

"So just like that, they let you go?" Tony asked, "Yea, i guess all the signs were there, i could tell that management had been tightening its belts recently, guess it was just a matter of time." he says taking another sip of his beer.

"Yea, so what are you going to do now?" Tony asks, "Well back to the job hunt i guess, but my lease is coming due and i don't have the money to commit to a reasonable lease." he says, "Oh wow man that sucks" Tony says, "Yea tell me about it, i mean i would ask to crash on your couch but i wouldn't want to cramp your style with Kim." Jack says smiling suggestively at his friend

But Tony just gives a faint smile, "Well if that's all your worried about then the couch is all yours." he says taking another sip of his beer

"Oh wow, i'm sorry man, when did all this happen?" he asks, "About a week, you know the whole it's not your it's me thing."

"Wow, i thought you two were a real match, i'd been expecting the best man conversation for about a month now." Jack said

"Thanks for the confidence man, but it just wasn't meant to be. I am going to miss having a woman's touch around my place. I mean i don't mean to make all men look bad but my place is a mess when its just me." he says laughing

"Hey no shame in it man, i'd be happy to clean houses if it would play my rent." Jack says, "Yea but you would look horrible in a maid outfit." Tony says as he bursts out laughing

Jack then begins laughing with him, "Yea you've got a point, hey did you ever get Kim in a maid or any other kind of outfit?" Jack asks

"Wouldn't you like to know... and Yes, yes i did." he says proudly, Jack then bursts out laughing, "Oh wow, you're the Man." he says, "Yep i try, nothing like having a girl around." Tony says wishing that he still had one.

Suddenly a mysterious woman approaches the table
