Chapter 4

Dunn shifted foot to foot, then with a return to the annoyed tone he’d used earlier, said, “Give me your voucher, then.” Apparently, Rusty’s completely flabbergasted—and pissed off—expression made an impression, because Dunn added, “No, I mean…look at the menu board. The vouchers won’t even cover the whole plate of food. I’ll just pay for the rest. I feel bad for taking the chicken, the gravy, the coleslaw—”

“I don’t even like coleslaw.” Rusty knew his interruption missed the point as soon as he’d said it. “I’m sorry. Listen, Mr. Gru…Mr. Dunn. I’m fine with what I have. I don’t know if the café’s always this bad—”

“I think it’s the crowd.”

“Yeah, makes sense. Anyway, the airline’s too cheap to cover a meal, and the café is swamped, not your fault. Right? I’m fine.”

“Sir?” The cashier looked aggrieved with Dunn for holding up the line.
