Gamblers Anonymous Part Eight
"Yes, very well… I'll see you then. Come in." Amanda heard Olivia say. Amanda opened the door and walked into her office.
"Close the door please." Amanda closed the door.
"That was just Barba." Olivia informed her.
"What did he say?" Amanda asked.
"You'll need to testify for the case." Oliva replied.
"The man shot himself Liv. I tried to stop him but he pulled the trigger." Amanda explained. Olivia held up her hand to stop her from talking.
"I know Amanda. But the case is still going to court weather or not you shot him. I know." Olivia said. Amanda was confused. What did Liv know about?
"I know about you and Nick Amanda. I know he went to see you. As soon as I told him that you'd been shot, he started making excuses to go and see you." Olivia told her.
"It's not what you think it is." Amanda started saying.
"It's not my business Amanda. But if your relationship with Nick interferes with work." Olivia said.
"You'll transfer me out." Amanda said finishing her sentence.
"I understand, I get it."
"Nick seems happy with you." Olivia said with a smile.
"I'm happy with him. I really am. And with Nick… I just feel like he understands and I don't have to explain myself to him." Amanda told her.
"Good, well I guess that's it for tonight. Maria is safe. Richard is dead and oh Barba wants to rehearse first thing tomorrow morning." Olivia said as she got up and grabbed her purse like she was leaving.
"I need to go home and take care of Noah." Oliva said now opening the door and headed for the elevator. Amanda quickly went to grab her coat and purse and told Olivia to hold the elevator.
"I'll walk you out." Amanda said. Olivia pressed the second floor button and then smiled at Amanda. Minutes later the door to the elevator opened.
"Goodnight Amanda." Olivia said while unlocking her car door.
"Night Liv." Amanda said as she got in her car and headed to Murfs Pub.
Amanda parked her car and walked into the pub. She went over to the bar and sat down.
"I'll take a beer." She told the waiter. The waiter nodded as he went to grab her a bottle.
"Here you go. Anything else I can help you with?" he asked. She took the bottle and took a sip before answering.
"I'll play a game." She replied. He nodded his head as he went to grab a deck of cards.
"Hit me." She said when he flipped some cards over.
Hit me again.
