[The revelation finally hit him. Wow, that was late. He stared, wide-eyed, open-jawed from one man to the other.
He was quiet for a good long while before letting out a deep sigh and pinching the bridge of his nose under his glasses. He stood up silently, grunting slightly and retrieved a full bottle of bourbon from his bag, placing it on the table. He opened the bottle and poured the bourbon into the teacups instead, sliding one over to Venom.
He was exhausted, suddenly. He hoped that the alcohol would dull the edge of the pain as well. He tossed back the drink in one go, before pouring himself a second.]
November was the first time, we were sexual. And yes, Phoenix, I believe it was late in the evening when I had made Venom's acquaintance.
[Turning to Venom, he spoke.]
...I had no idea that it was you, that is Phoenix's paramour. I suppose I can see why he would be interested, though you are younger than I was expecting.
However, I do have a question for you Venom.
Do you just go around kissing middle-aged men? I mean, is that your type?
[He didn't mean to be catty. But the pain was bad and this was supposed to be his only break.]
Still. I suppose we should get everything out in the open.
