Kai Parker's Not Ready
The crowd got quiet by this point and waited for him to make an announcement.
“You see, I had a special friend when I was in high school. You all knew that friend very well. Losers always make themselves known. Unfortunately, my friend was a coward and left the town, hiding from reality.” I gripped the glass tight enough to break it.
He was still an asshole, wasn't he? I wanted to punch him so hard.
“Luckily, my friend found his courage back and decided to show up! Here's to the newly found bravery of my friend and to the hope that he is no longer a loser. Everyone, welcome Kai Parker!” Suddenly I was under the spotlight.
