Gar was sitting on the step in front of the tux shop when Steve returned.
"Stupid cummerbunds," was his greeting.
"Yeah. Let me tell you what just happened." And Steve relayed the whole thing, starting with the apparently-injured old man and ending with Kevin's jerkiness.
"Does this guy think he's a Lifetime movie bad guy?"
"That's what I'm saying. 'Stay away from Jen.' Doesn't he realize that only makes it more likely that I won't?"
"Yeah, he's an idiot all right. Come on, I got my tux fixed. Let's go - I still have half an essay to write."
"Ah yes - The Foundation for the Foundation: A foundational report brought to you by the Gar Foundation. Catchy title."
"I'm hoping it counts toward my word total."
