Through the Screen
Chapter 57
there's noise.
too much noise for abel to hear what chris is saying when he's literally five inches away, and so when he answers noah's call, he knows he has made a bad decision. noah is talking loudly into the phone, in the hopes of making abel hear something, anything, but all abel can hear is jumbled words.
"can you shut up for a second!" abel yells at chris, who is drunkenly mumbling something that makes no sense, and chris just pouts, falling into a bar stool, and leaning against the obnoxiously long bar.
"no, not you, i was talking to chris," abel yells hopelessly into the phone, and when noah begins speaking again, he simply ends the call out of frustration. first noah acts like a dick and doesn't answer his calls, and now he is calling him at midnight while he is at the loudest place on the planet?
abel 's thinking is slightly irrational, his already un-placid mind overpowering under the influence of all the alcohol that he has consumed, as he types an angry text with his shaky fingers.
