Found You Again

A day had passed since Jason's death.

Jen was watching the television. The news.

"Hey, Danny! Come over here!"

Daniel plopped next to Jen to watch the news.

Even tho they had left the body at a valley someone had found it. They knew that it would be found eventually. Not like they cared. The body was burned to the point that it was impossible to be recognized.

"Did i miss anything? Had they found the killer?"

He knew the answer. It wouldn't hurt to double check tho.

"Nah. The body is impossible to be recognized. The case will be closed without even starting." she answered without taking her eyes off of the television.

"That's good to hear. I'm going outside."

He stood up from the couch, and made his way to the door.

It was still morning. What was a great way to start the morning? Going to the bar.

"Awh, so soon?"

Daniel was already in his usual attire. White polo shirt, light grey pants, white boots with black sole and heels, and brown coat for the finishing touch. He couldn't wear his old black one. It was too bloody to wear currently.

"Bye." he said, opening the door.

Jen waved at him as a respond without looking at him.

And just like that he was off to the bar.

"Hey,"

Daniel was startled by the sudden voice, but eased as he realised it was just Kevin.

"Hi."

"Care to join for a smoke?"

"I would be glad to, but my friend threw away all of my cigarettes."

"Would you want more drugs?"

"Like the thing you gave me last time?"

"Yes, but even better."

He took a weed out of his hoodie's pocket and gave it to Daniel.

"What's this? It looks like a cigarette."

"Marijuana smoke. It's like smoking 5 cigarettes."

"Do you have regular cigarettes near you?"

"Sorry. I don't."

Daniel wasn't sure, but he needed a cigarette. Kevin said it was similar to a cigarette. He wouldn't know before trying.

"I'll warn you. A weed high generally lasts between 1–6 hours. The time varies depending on how you ingest the product, alongside other factors."

Was he going to risk it? Hell yeah.

He closed his eyes and inhaled the smoke.

He coughed a little.

"Slow down man. It isn't running anywhere."

Daniel chuckled at the comment.

"You're doing it so fast. Here. Let me show you,"

He took the weed out of Daniel's grasp and blew on it himself.

Daniel took it back and tried copying him.

"You're getting the hang of it pretty quickly."

Kevin threw his old cigarette on the ground and they started to use the weed together.
