Capítulo 10: Chapter 10

Dallas went to the dining area and took a seat near the large windows.It was a very no-nonsense kind of hotel,it seemed.A waitress,who seemed to double as a bartender on the quiet weeknight,came to take his order—a smoked salmon pasta seemed like a good choice—and left him as efficiently as only someone who knew how to work multiple tasks at the same time could.

Dallas stared out the window at the small,well-lit park behind the hotel.It was nice,again almost homey in some strange way.Maybe it was a small town thing.
