Carlos. Tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, she said, “Uncle


    Curtis, what’s going on?”


    Curtis giggled and adjust his phone so that Debbie could only see him.


    “Carlos has been drinking all night. Damon’s already passed out.


    Neither of Wesley and Niles is a heavy drinker. I guess I will be the next to get wasted. Debbie, you


    have to help me.”


    Both Niles and Debbie were rendered speechless.


    ‘Wait. Carlos has been drinking?’ Debbie furrowed her brows and said anxiously, “Carlos is still on his


    medication. He really shouldn’t be drinking at all.”


    “I know! But he has already drunk four and a half bottles of Liquor.


    And, guess what? He has already smoked three packets of cigarettes. Any sensible human being


    would think that he’s probably trying to kill himself.”


    ‘What? Is Uncle Curtis joking or something? What will I do if Carlos dies? And Piggy?’


    Debbie couldn’t ept the thought of losing Carlos again and she raised her voice saying, “Uncle


    Curtis, could you please give your phone to Carlos?” She didn’t know whether Carlos would speak to


    her, but she had to give it a shot.

    Curtis waved his phone before Carlos and said, “Debbie’s on the line.


    She wants to talk to you.”


    Carlos cast a cold nce at Curtis to dismiss him at once. He knew


    Curtis was using Debbie to stop him from drinking.


    “No!” He turned


    Curtis down without hesitation.


    Upon hearing that, Debbie felt both hurt and embarrassed.


    “Uncle


    Curtis, I have to get back to work now. You should just call


    Stephanie.”


    Before Curtis even had the chance to say something, Debbie ended the video call, without saying


    goodbye.


    Almost immediately, an awkward silence permeated the private booth.


    None of them knew what to say or do.


    After a while, Curtis stood up, walked to the wine cab and grabbed a bottle of wine.
