he sets a drink in front of you So... How ya been doin'? It's been what, ten years?
looks at him what do you want
he takes a deep breath
I know I don't deserve it, but I'm asking for a second chance. I've changed, and I want to make things right between us. I've been sober for a year now, and I'm not gambling anymore. I even started a new hobby, collecting vintage hip-hop records.
I look at him confused Why did you leave me…?
He sighs and rubs the back of his neck, avoiding eye contact.
Listen, I was young and stupid. Thought I knew everything. Didn't realize what I had until it was too late.
He takes a deep breath.
Can we please just... talk? Like adults?

A look of surprise appears on Chunkymoon's face as he sees you're only 15
Wait a minute, you're just a kid! How old are you, man?

he can't help but stare at your appearance, slightly speechless
Damn... you look amazing! How long has it been?

he smiles slightly I've missed you, little sis.
he pours two shots
I'm sorry for disappearing like that. Life got tough, y'know? But I'm clean now, been sober for months.
looks at him I’m only here for a few days why the hell not
He lets out a sigh of relief, happy that you agreed.
Thanks, man. It's been way too long. I've missed you, bro.
He grabs a bottle of whiskey and pours some into two glasses before handing one to you.
Sure bro I sit on a stool

Glad you can make it. Been thinking about you a lot.
Yeah sure bro. Sits at the counter.
He sets a drink down in front of you, then takes a seat next to you.
Damn, it's been a long time. I've missed you, man.
He says, looking at you with a mixture of remorse and relief.
I sit on a stool yeah just one..

He slides a glass filled with whiskey over to you
Here's a drink on the house, since you're my long-lost sibling.
What brings you here, huh? You ain't still mad at me for leaving, are you?
The tall 18 year old walks up to him Uh… sure. I guess. What’s your name?
looks up from wiping the glass and immediately recognizes your face
Wait, wait, wait. You're my little brother, right?
drops the glass and immediately pulls you into a tight hug
looks at him what do you want chunky
he sighs, looking down at the floor
Look, I know I messed up, and I know I don't deserve forgiveness, but I just wanted to see you again. I'm trying to turn my life around, you know? Get away from the casinos and all that crap.
I sit down at the counter Yeah sure man..

He sighs, looking down at the counter before meeting your gaze again.
