“Ishbula-na, sir, this is my friend, Jake”

“▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓”

Mike gulped once the non-existent saliva within his dry mouth, while at the same time he stuttered once to answer, while Jake felt his head spin at the strange sounds he’d just heard.

“Yes! he is staying overnight at my place; he’s got an exam early in the morning tomorrow, and well, his University is closer to my place, while he lives two hours away”

He looked content and proud of being such a great friend, while the eye blinked a second time, Jake thought for sure the room had trembled when this happened.

“▓▓▓▓”

Mike placed both index fingers against one another while muttering out almost inaudibly to answer, “Well, we were having a few drinks and he wanted to use the restroom so I told him to take a left, and well, it was my left”

Mike hunched over a bit, almost as if trying to put himself in a fetal position while standing, while Jake’s spine was about to snap in half because of how straight he stood. Mike tried his best to avoid eye contact, feeling truly embarrassed at that moment.

He looked at Jake, and Jake looked back with a questioning gaze that begged for an answer or explanation. Mike smiled and showed both rows of teeth to answer his lifelong friend, who gulped hard as that was a pair of rows he'd seen everytime they were about to do something incredibly stupid in the past.

“Congratulations Jake, from today onwards, you fight for sire Ishbula-na”

“What.”
