"It's gone downhill since then," Frank replied. He pushed the coffee cup
towards the waitress. She flashed him a smile and he winked back as she
refilled his cup.
Goner was sipping his cola. He wasn't much of a
coffee drinker, and he couldn't fathom why anyone would drink oil from
beans to begin with.
"You mean you guys tanked out?" Goner asked.
"Not really," Frank replied after he took a sip from the coffee.
"Then what?" questioned Goner.
"Well,"
Frank said once the waitress was out of earshot. "It's just that it
just went bat-shit crazy from that point on. You know the weird stuff we
encountered in the Plaza Station?"
Goner nodded.
"Imagine that about tenfold," Frank said.
"No way," Goner said breathlessly.
The
doors chimed and Max entered. He spotted the two and went over to the
table. He didn't even have to signal the waitress for a coffee because
she was automatically pouring one. Goner looked up at Max and shook his head in disbelief.
"You told him?" Max asked of Frank as he slid into the booth alongside him.
"Well, just the basics," Frank replied. "I really didn't go into detail."
"You had to been there, Gondy" Max said.
