Their drinking spree started with Angela's Negroni—a classic Italian cocktail that Gael suggested. It looked reddish and sweet—it's anything but! The deceiving drink was strong and had bitter notes to it, but the vermouth and the added orange garnish gave it enough fruity sweetness, balancing the cocktail's overall flavor. It wasn't her favorite, but she didn't mind drinking it.
Unwilling to divulge anything personal between them, the two decided to keep their conversation light and casual, avoiding any questions that would require them to spill anything they didn't want to. It worked for both of them because Angela didn't want to talk about her past, and if she spoke about her life, she feared that he would do his research about her—at the same time, Gael had secrets to keep.
Thank you for reading :D
