Chapitre 43: Rick and Gloria [1]

Chapter - 43

Rick pushed open the glass door to the store, the familiar chime of the bell above the entrance greeted him. He glanced around, his eyes quickly locking onto his store buddy, Ryan, who was behind the counter stacking bags of chips.

"Hey, Ryan!" Rick called out, offering a friendly wave, "How's it going, buddy?"

Ryan looked up, his face finally felt relieved. He dropped a bag of chips, and it crinkled loudly as it hit the floor.

"You are finally here," Ryan whispered in relief.

Rick furrowed his brow, a perplexed expression crossing his face as he approached the counter. "Dude, what's up with you? You look like you've seen a your father."

Ryan leaned in closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "Gloria's already here, man."

"Oh, Gloria, huh?" Rick whispered back with a mischievous grin.
