The silver car had been closing in, but just then, it took a sharp turn to the left. Where are they going? Leor wondered. But he decided to keep it to himself.

The cabby nodded and ran a hand through his hair. “Alright. Well, we’re here anyways.”

Leor saw the winery a few blocks down. “I thought you said it’d take ten minutes?”

“You made me nervous,” Claude retorted. “I drive fast when I’m nervous.”
