At two am in the morning. The rain had stopped and there were only a handful of people left at the club where Leo went to meet Chris. The two men were still talking. Mostly Leo was the one doing the talking while Chris patiently listened to his friend who has gotten more talkative than usual.
Chris could tell from the way Leo was talking and what he was saying that his friend was already getting drunk. He has let his guard down and his words were more emotional. All he talked about and continually repeated over and over again was how he made a mistake and misjudged Emma, how he loved her so much and how he was afraid of losing her.
You should call her you know... It's wrong for you to just leave her alone by herself anyway. And you're also miserable because of that as it is so just call her already"
