Parker stalks into the bar, clearly coming in from a date.
A date that has ended two hours early, as it happens. As fix-ups go? That had been a disaster. Parker doesn’t know what the hell Lexie had been thinking. Unless “He’s a really nice guy—lots of fun,” now translates to “He likes to drink and try to get his hand up your skirt.”
Parker had told him where to stick it and called a cab to take her back to Hearst.
She drops her purse on a table, and says hello to and places an order with a passing waitrat. By the time she has unbuckled and kicked off her heels and propped her feet up comfortably in an empty chair with a long sigh, her strawberry-lemonade has arrived.
Civilization exists. Even if you have to go to the End of the Universe to find it sometimes.

There's a disturbing image.
"Your eye?"

He points to his right eye.
"It was actually beside my eye."
