Thursday mid-afternoon, New York City
From Barney’s, Jake and Davey took a cab to Abercrombie and Fitch on Fifth Avenue and Fifty-Seventh. “Why do you take a cab, when you can take the car? You have it in the garage at the office.”
“In a word, parking…I can never find a space. I’m thinking of hiring a driver. My friends Caden and Bear each have one and they’re very happy. Then I would only need the car to travel to New Jersey on weekends and where we go, parking isn’t a problem.”
“Shouldn’t we be back at the office? I’ve only finished one brief.”
“You finished one brief already this morning?” Jake asked incredulous.
“It was an easy one. Our case was cut-and-dry, I found at least twenty court decisions to back up our client’s position and five of them were in this federal district,” Davey said matter-of-factly.
