I wipe the tears. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t unload all this on you.”
“It’s okay. It’s the most you’ve ever talked to me.”
“Really?”
He nods. “We were friendly and all, but…”
“Then you must really think I’m crazy.”
“I think you’re confused, and I think you need someone to talk all this out with.” He pours another shot. “In my experience, alcohol cures all.”

Jed laughs. “I wouldn’t worry about Alicia if I were you.” He rounds the bar and unlocks the door.
Adam comes in, takes the shot glass from my lips, and tugs on my hand. “Let’s go.”
“What? Why? I’m talking with Jed.”
Jed leans against the wall by the door with his arms crossed and a smug smile.
“Getting drunk at ten in the morning isn’t going to bring back your damn memory,” Adam grumbles.
“No, but it was helping her forget the present. Sometimes people need that too,” Jed says, waving at me as Adam leads me down the hallway and out the back door.
