Jealousy Problems
"Where's Connie??" Jack asked as Mike approached his table and sat in a chair across from him.
"She went back to the office. Said she needed to finish some reading for the case. Anyway, I just think she's mad." Mike smiled.
"It's that blonde clerk, isn´t it? What's her name again?" Jack asked, raising one eyebrow with a smirk on his face. Mike grinned.
"Yeah. And her name is Carly."
"She's dying with jealousy. I saw her face when the blonde tried to fool us with those 'scheduling issues'". Both men laughed.
"It's not my fault, Jack, that Carly is trying to get me into her bed." Mike ordered a ginger ale. "And you know what... I prefer brunettes. It was funny: Connie asking me if I was sleeping with Carly or something." Jack smiled.
"I can even imagine her face when she asked about it. The kind of look that could fry you if she had lasers like wonder woman," he said biting his steak.
"How do you know?" Mike asked, suspiciously.
"We had a case once, long before you joined us, of a blown up house that killed a little girl, and the defense attorney was my second wife's divorce attorney. She was just too gorgeous, anyway,
Connie and the judge had a disagreement, and she insulted the judge. When we left, I said to her that she couldn´t let her opinions guide her and she just snapped at me, saying I should tell 'my girlfriend' that, instead. In the end, Allisa was never my girlfriend, but the jealousy in Connie's tone... that was priceless." They chuckled and clinked their glasses together. "So, what did she say to you?" Jack asked.
"She implied, by asking if Carly and I have something. I said no – and that's the truth, if you're wondering – so she said she just wanted to check if there wasn't a conflict of interests. I said no, and asked if we didn't have a jealousy problem. Then she hit below the belt and said something about me being older than her."
"God, the woman knows how to be mean. I keep wondering what she would say if I ever invited her out for a drink." Jack smirked.
"Hahaha, Jack, lunch was great, but I have loads of paper work waiting for me, and I doubt she's gonna help me today," Mike said, taking a twenty dollar bill from his wallet and putting it on the table. "Have a nice afternoon, see you at the office," he said.
"I hope we're not having a jealousy problem right here, Mike. I wouldn't be so evil as to try to seduce her when that's something you want so badly to do yourself." Jack said, watching Mike's face burn in embarrassment. "Really, I have no problem with that. Go ahead."
