“I was kinda hoping that we got together,” Joey says.

Back in the 2000s Joey drummed for a grunge band and then for a punk band and then learned guitar and started a death metal band. We hung out at shows. Recently he ran into me on Instagram. He suggested we meet up. I picked an Irish pub by the lake.

“What? You never asked me out.” I say.

“You never seemed that interested.”

Joey was a stud back in the 2000s. Tall. Slim but toned. Chiseled jaw and cheek bones. Tanned skin from long hours of landscaping. Long wavy brown hair. He wore jeans that fit properly.

He always had a girl sitting on his lap. Explanation: When there were no seats available at a table, girls sat on guys’ laps. Sometimes they did that playfully even if there were seats. You could boldly do that. Except when the guy had a girlfriend. After sometime of being on the scene, you came to know who was with whom.

Girls always chose Joey’s lap. If they weren’t sitting on him, they were snuggling up to him in one way or another. This was Joey’s reality. Girls all over him all the time.

“I bought you drinks.” Joey says.

“You bought girls drinks all the time.” I laugh.
