Chapter 54

• When we showed up, everything looked more tasteful than I envisioned. We had strolled into an extremely lavish club. The lights were faint, there were two flights of stairs that converged into one at the center. It hinted at an unattainable rank where one could stand and watch the partygoers.

It was for the most part men as they sat in gatherings, drinking and giggling. I could hear glass banging against each other and a periodic bark of chuckling from somebody who had smashed excessively a lot.
