After dropping Miranda and Paul off, Winter drove to the bar. The ride was smooth. But just as she was about to park at the bar entrance, a Maserati zipped in from the side and slammed into her rear.

Winter was furious. She slammed her door and marched to the front of the other vehicle. “What the hell is wrong with you? Do you know how to drive? Why are you stepping on the gas instead of slowing down? “You’re speeding right here, and you’re not even looking where you’re going. My car wasn’t even halfway in the parking space. Were you not paying attention? How did you even hit me?”

The Maserati driver’s door swung open, and a man stepped out with a grin. “I was curious who it was, and it turned out to be you. It’s just a minor bump. You don’t have to lose your cool.”

Zach swaggered over to Winter with a cheeky smile.

“Oh! It’s Mr. Graaaaaham.” She dragged out the syllables while keeping the sarcasm subtle enough.

He assessed the rear of the Ferrari and realized it was indeed badly hit. But he maintained his usual nonchalance. “It’s not a big deal. I was just going a bit fast and wasn’t paying attention. Looks like we had a little… close encounter, right?”
