How Could She?

When I came out of the bathroom I made a bee-line for Delunca when I saw him alone at the bar waiting for a drink. I slid onto the seat next to him and gave him my most charming smile. 

"Whatever it is, no," he chuckled as the bartender finally gave him his drink.

"I didn't say anything," I laughed, "What made you think I'm up to something?"

"You have the same smile when Mum is up to something," he shook his head then took a sip of his drink. 

I let out a sigh and clasped my hands together, "I just wanted to ask if you've heard from Ethan or anything."

His eyebrows went up so high they almost touched his hair line as his skin partly paled, "You haven't asked me about Ethan in over five years. Why do you suddenly want information on him?"

"I was just curious, I just heard he might be around that's all," I shrugged.
