WIP Wednesday (5/8) | Mafia Front Restaurant AU (Part 157)

“Yeah. He was a good drinking buddy. He could afford the nice stuff and let me steal it.”

“You s-stole from your coach?” Neil holds in a flinch, but Andrew must notice something slip out from the look on his face. He doesn’t mention it though.

“Oh constantly.” Andrew says, waving his hand. “But I think he knew I was trying to piss him off because he never rose to the bait. He’d just pour himself some and sit down like it was normal. And we’d drink in silence till the sun came up.”

Well… That sounds like Kevin, about five years ago. But Neil doesn’t say so.

“I still talk to him whenever I feel like annoying someone. Which is frequently,” Andrew smiles then and Neil lets out a laugh. “I mean it. David V. Wymack has been speed dial 1 on every phone I’ve had since college. And he always answers.”

“Always?”

“If I called him right now, he’d pick up and pretend to be pissed that I’m bothering him. But,” Andrew says, holding up a finger. “He’d pick up. I suppose that’s a way he and his son differ.”

Neil blinks. “His son?”

“Why, Kevin, of course.” Andrew says as if it’s not one of the best-kept secrets in all of exy. Andrew gives Neil an unimpressed look. “What? You thought he’d spill about the Moriyamas, but not about his lineage?”

“Well, I just… I thought we were the only ones who knew.” Neil says, meaning the perfect court. Or… What’s left of it anyhow. 

“Nope.” Andrew shakes his head. “You know, if you look at old pictures of Wymack, Kevin resembles him quite a bit. It’s surprising no one’s put it together before. I mean, he and Kayleigh were… close, after all.”

Neil isn’t sure what to do with that, so he just clears his throat. “Uh… You wanna show me that rat screwing game?”

It’s a blatant attempt to change the topic, but Andrew rolls with it. “Sure.”
