There wasn't much chatter around the bar for some time when Remus first arrived. The glass of water he ordered was barely touched. He merely sat there for a long time, pondering over things.
How much time I've wasted being here?, he thought. He looked around the bar to see if there was anyone to talk to. He recognized no one particularly familiar, and so he decided to leave. In one gulp, he finished the whole glass and proceeded to pay the bartender. Just as he was reaching for his credit card, he caught a glimpse of someone looking at him from the corner of his eye.
He turned towards the stranger thinking,He looks familiar... Just then the bartender interrupts, "Sir... would you like a another glass?
"Oh, uh, no... that'll be all.", as he hands the bartender his credit card. Without even waiting for the bartender, he approaches the familiar face.
"Lieutenant Grams isn't it?", he asks albeit with a slight smile.
