“I'm really quite sure that you're wrong, Peter.”
They were sitting on a bed, old and stained. Bern again, twelve years later and no Belgian arm dealers this time, only a bumbling Russian diplomat and Moscow rules.
“I'm never wrong.”
Cards were put down, Jack, Queen, and King - spades.
“Sure. But you are this time, all right?” Toby was grinning, back arching in full Hungarian flight. He was positively preening. “And I'm out.” Three aces put down.
Peter frowned at the cards, wondering what the best reaction would be. Toby yanked him forward, cards spilling, solving the problem for him.
