It was clear that her cheek had stopped. A perfectly planted left hook. It was swollen tight and shiny. The broken vessels below the skin had already sent blood to blacken her almond shaped emerald green. I her other eye was bloodshot red from crying. Her mascara had run down her cheek in a dark line. Steel reached for his desk drawer drink. Miss. He slid the drawer open, extracted a half full bottle of no name whiskey and two glasses. Mrs She managed. Between hitched psalms Mrs Harrison.

He patiently waited for her to tell the story that would change his luck.
