Me And Mr Spence

chapter 6

I took a deep breath OK Nicky you can do this. I walked back to my seat and sat down. There was something in me saying remember your brothers so I forced a smile and he gave me one as well.
"What will you be having? He asked
" I'll have the turn cornmeal with steamed fish" I told him.
I'll have two bottles of your finest wine" he said happily. We waited a while then we got our orders.
"Why two bottles of wine I asked you should know I don't drink".
" I know that but this is for me" he said proudly. As he popped the wine opened he poured some in a wine glass and drank.
I was amazed at how he was drinking it as if it was water.
As time went by everybody was looking at us but he didn't care he was finished with one bottle and on to the next only this time after popping it open he just turned it to his head.
It was so embarrassing and there was nothing I could do about it.
Clearly this man had a substance abuse problem. As time progressed he got junker and junker he started talking all sorts of crop it was just so unbearable. Everybody looked at him with disgust. "I'll just be right back I have to go to the restroom" I told him.
"No you just went what's wrong with you"he said in a loud and boisterous tone.
I wanted to cry it felt as if there was no way out then suddenly a voice out of nowhere said " uncle tony why do you keep doing this did you stop taking your medz?" his voice got louder as
He walked up to us and said I'm sorry everybody our uncle is kind of crazy and instantly they stopped looking at us with disgust.

He then came over to us and helped Pete up and we went outside he then called a cab and placed him in it. "He'll tell you where he lives" he said and the cab drove off.
"What do you want" I asked him
"A simple thank you would be nice he said as he raised an eyebrow.
" No really how much do you want?" I asked
"You know what your problem is Miss smart mouth you think your better than everyone do you know who I am if I take money from you I would be a jerk" he said angrily and walked away.
Who does he think he is talking to me like that I thought to myself as I walked to my car
This was the very first time someone spoke to me like that.
