Luke's, Thursday
So the good news was, Duke had managed to drag himself into the diner for once, this week. The bad news was, the newer beachy vibe of the place was just reminding him of Haven and Wade and everything he'd been hiding on the boat trying not to think about for the last several weeks.
But he'd dragged himself here and that was supposed to be progress, so he was stubborning it out. Beer clenched in both hands as he watched the place from a seat on the newer second floor.
His staff all gave him wide berths, other than to drop off the occasional fresh bottle. Consensus was, if htey weren't careful, he might actually fire someone this time.
Duke would feel bad about that, if he knew. Which would only add to his funk, and thus reinforce the aura of mean. . . .
