Kenny & Wes
Wes remembered the first few gatherings he'd attended. Back when WAMM hosted the biggest cook outs in town. Those days were long gone, though, and he wasn't much for the gatherings anymore. But he felt this one was important enough to draw him out of his cocoon of books.
He had a beer in hand as he walked the park. Living in the states had made a beer drinker out of him. He both enjoyed it and hated it at the same time. And yet he continued to drink it.
He took a sip just as he spotted Kenny. He made his way over. "Hello, stranger," he said casually. He hadn't talked to Kenny for a while.
