Ā Supervising a body transfer wasnāt one of Ifanās favourite things to do. Supervising one in the early morning, before heād had his coffee? Even worse. So there he was, standing in line at the hospitalās main inexplicably generic cafe, looking probably more corpse-like than the corpse he was about to help drag back to their office proper.
Ā Being tired could only lead to one thing in his case. Lowered inhibitions. And lowered inhibitions led to being chatty, which led to him picking someone next to him in line as the unwitting victim in his small talk tirade. āThought I ought to warn you, the espresso here isĀ miserable, but it works.ā
when it came to the matter of who looked more like a corpse, victor could have given ifan a fair run for his money. if heād slept at all last night, his face didnāt show it ā beneath his eyes, which were still half-lidded, the skin sagged in heavy, dark bags, and every minute or so, he had to press his lips together to stifle a yawn.Ā
ā iāve yet to find an espresso in this country that does not taste miserable. ā if he had been a little more in his right mind, he might have made somewhat of an effort to sound less condescending, but at present, tact was far from his largest concern. biting back another yawn, he reached up to rub the back of his neck.Ā ā if it works, it works. ā
