"Hefeweizen is fine, thank you." Normally Sean wouldn't drink on a work day, but as he had left, he had told his boss that a medical emergency had come up and he might not be back to work that day, and that either way he would let him know. He figured one beer couldn't hurt, and if it became more than one, he would just play the medical emergency card. it was horribly dishonest and he didn't like it, but he had the scare of his life today. He took the beer, opened it up and took a casual drink, of which he almost spit out when Fiona asked him what he had been touching. His mind went to so many different places with that one. Had she heard a rumor about his sexuality? Did she remember his not so subtle post about pot on the public forum? Was she talking about touching her sister, he had no idea, but none of the answers he could think of would help in any way.
Thankfully Karin changed the subject. "No, no I don't need painkillers, but thank you Karin, really." He nodded at the mention of a hospital that wouldn't turn him away. It was quite humiliating to have to admit that he couldn't afford a simple doctor visit, but it was life and he was glad that she hadn't made him vocalize it.
He turned to Fiona and smiled, beer in hand. "I'm sorry for just barging in on you two like this."
