Secrets

Dan gestured for him to sit, then produced a bottle of fine wine and two glasses from the nearby cabinet.

"Let's chat, then if that's why you're here". Dan said, pouring generously. "But don't think I can't see through you. You miss her, don't you?"

Zeke took the glass, swirling the wine absently as bis face flushed with embarrassment and he immediately refuted. "I didn't say that."

"You didn't have to." Dan raised his glass in mock salute as he added mockingly. "To love. And to fools like you who can't bear a few weeks apart."

"That sounds nice , well you can't relate since you dedicate your whole life to writing script". Zeke responded curtly and smirked despite himself and took a sip of the wine.

The wine was rich and smooth, but it did little to calm the nervous energy thrumming in his veins. He wanted to play it cool, but his eyes kept darting to the door as if Yvette might walk in at any moment.
