Deadly Game With My Adopted Uncle
The music is already thumping through the walls—that heavy jazz that my grandfather loves.
I don’t want to be here, but instead, I’m smoothing out my dress and trying to look like the dutiful granddaughter while my blood boils.

And then I spot him in the corner.
In a simple black shirt half-buttoned, hair messy as if he just rolled out of bed, literally. Putting on the fake hangover look.
He’s leaning back, completely at ease, as if he hadn't just committed a kidnapping by proxy. When he catches my eye, he raises his glass like an invitation to come play.
