The "Ambrosia" - Colonial Bar on Sabah Shipyard

[t0l]

Tal walks back in.

"Crap, uh, forgot my jacket."

He walked back to the counter and grabbed his jacket, which was on the stool. He examined it carefully in case anyone decided to play a practical joke. He slipped it back on, and went to the bartender.

"You know, I'd like a uh, SNACK while I'm here, again."

The bartender went back to the kitchen, later coming out carrying the roast beef sandwich and a glass of water. Tal paid him and sized up the sandwich, which was oozing out a dark red sauce among the layers of beef. He took a bite, chewing for a second and swallowing it. He sat there for a second before reaching for his water. He drank half the glass and went back to his sandwich, taking another bite. He reached for his water again, and took another bite.

He called the bartender over.

"Another one of those IMDs, please."

The bartender fixed up his drink and Tal got back to his sandwich. He finished it, grabbed his drink, and tipped the bartender. He stood up, looked around the room again, took a deep breath, and walked back out again.
