Keeping quiet as the two women chattered on, tasting the wine I was surprised how nice it tasted, I had only drank whiskey till now, or maybe not, I can't remember, I wish I could remember. Studying my cards I decided to take three, as I held two aces. As I laid the cards I didn't want, I started to get hot, beads of sweat lined my brow, I held the arm of the chair I was sitting on with my spare hand, I felt it start to crumble under my grip, what was wrong with me? The heat within me stopped, I looked at Bronwyn, she was looking at me, she smiled; it was smile of knowing, but did she know? I smiled back and nodded.<br/><br/>I place a $25 chip on my cards then waited for the others to bet; taking a mouthful of wine.
