"You're quiet." Bosco said as he drove down the streets towards Kim's
place.
"Huh? Oh yeah. No. Sorry."
"You okay?"
"Not so much, no."
"Did I do something to piss you off?"
"No, you didn't."
"Jimmy?"
"No. I'm just a little worried about Bobby."
"Wanna talk about it?"
"It's his brother."
"I didn't know he had one."
"Yeah. Bobby's pretty closed mouthed when it comes to him. His name's Mateo, we all call him Matty. He got out right before Thanksgiving."
"Rehab?"
"Prison."
"Oh."
"He did a year at Riker's for theft."
"How's he doing now?"
"Great. At least he has been. I don't know anymore."
"What happened Kim?"
"Bosco, no offense or anything, but I'm not sure I should be talking about this with you."
"Why not?"
"Oh gee, let me think, Officer."
"Kim, I'm not a cop right now. Right now, I'm a guy worried that his girlfriend is keeping too much inside."
"You're always a cop. It's who you are."
"I'm not always a cop."
"Name one time when you didn't make a decision based on your profession."
"When I held up two guys who tried to hold me up."
"I'm sorry?"
"It happened a couple of weeks ago."
"Oh my God." Kim started to laugh.
"Feel better?"
"Oddly enough, I do. Thank you for that." She giggled.
"Wanna tell me about Matty and Bobby now?" He stopped the car in front of Kim's place.
"You wanna come in?"
"Sure."
"Huh? Oh yeah. No. Sorry."
"You okay?"
"Not so much, no."
"Did I do something to piss you off?"
"No, you didn't."
"Jimmy?"
