Back in the Ring

By Colleen Foley

Seth’s “Not now!” fell on intentionally deaf ears.

I’d been out of joint since the opening salvo of this mess. Being splattered with carcinogenic tomato guts will do that to a guy. But the familiar, dysfunctional domesticity of whiskey in Jimmy’s kitchen, had finally snapped me back to…me.

All honesty, I’m not a modest guy and I wanted nothing more than to dive my over-confident, evil-smiting self ,right into this “crawl inside your head” challenge Seth had presented. Right now.

My grin widened further. I slammed back a final shot and nodded.

"Bring it, little brother. Let’s get’er done."
