Vib hadn’t meant anything behind his joke— he hadn’t meant to offend her— Patty knew that. It was harmless fun, a light jab- nothing out of the ordinary.

She was lost in here own thoughts when you opened the back door; hell, she hadn’t even noticed you were there till you cleared your throat, prompting her to fumble a little, and quickly put out the cigarette she was sputtering on. “Oh— hi.” She tried her best not to sound flustered.
