More Chapter 11

     Charles looked over at Xation but his attention was drawn to a table of four that were laughing loudly. Charles noticed the two empty bottles of champagne on the table where there sat a woman in her mid fifties, two teenage boys, and a very attractive young woman with long deep red hair; whom began singing 'Rocky Racoon', by the Beatles. The group were having a wonderful time and Charles wished he were sitting at their table. He wanted to be happy like they were.
     "You see?" Xation said turning to look at the woman who was singing; which made him smile. "This is one of the reasons I enjoy being in Texas! The people here really know how to enjoy life." he remarked to the men at his table as he cast his gaze upon Charles saying  "Unlike someone I know."
     This comment angered Charles but he tried to think of something clever and said "I apologize everyone, but you must forgive me as my mind tends to wonder to graver matters."
     "Such as?" Xation asked.
     Here Charles paused taking a long deep breath before he said "Eternal damnation."
     Now here is where the conversation turned ugly. Charles wasn't quite sure how it came to be, or what was exactly said as he had been drinking whiskey, way too much whiskey, all day. But he was clear on the facts when Xation yelled at him and told Bengiman to get him the hell out of there. So it was about five minutes later, back in the car, when Charles demanded Bengiman take him to a bar in Sundance Square, and when he saw the young beautiful women standing outside a hip local bar he was happy to oblige him.
