Capítulo 188: Everything's Gonna Be Alright

"No." he frowns. "I'm not a child, Wesley. I'm glad that you were honest with me and now I know the score. Okay?"

I hesitate for a beat. "Are you sure that you want to waste your time with me?"

I shrug. "Okay, I'll have one drink with you, Justin."

"Really?" his eyes light up. "That's great. When? Tonight? We can go as soon as you get off."

I laugh gruffly and take a step back. "Tonight?"
