The Lucky Ones [ III ]
"We were scared, that's normal, isn't it?" The trembling voice didn't fit Raf's pudgy frame.
"Still, you both had things to do. You left the store and the cash register while I was away."
"You don't know that. You were gone too. Where were you?"
The two men in Hawaiian shirts lounged around again amongst the thin crowd. She knew they were the same people, Paladins, the Brit guy warned her about. She would know since there were only two kinds of people that came here today: ones who only saw themselves and the company they're with to have fun, and ones who only saw what was around them.

"There are others like you."
She froze.
"The lucky ones."
