Bob handed over one last double scotch. Gents_J was bleary-eyed drunk and could not see everything clearly any more.

SLAM! The door closed right behind Sausage. He stood alone on the moonlit sidewalk. Swaying gently, by himself, sucking in night air, cold crisp and at last devoid of blue cigar-smoke.

Gents_J looked up and down the street for his car. Being so drunk, and not able to walk straight, it was a hard job finding the car which fitted his keys. Finally the car all the way in the back of parking place was the right one.

Gents_J sat down in the drivers seat  then noticed a dark form next to him.

Hey! Who are you?*hic* What are you doing in my....

Sausage was found slumped behind the wheel of his car the following morning, dead as a dodo.
