Telling

He walked in and put a sports bag on the table. I looked up at him, then at the bag, then him.


"And that is?"


"Open it."


I looked at the general shape of it.


"Look, I don't need visual proof you killed him, if that's-"


"Nah, he's still alive."


I looked back at him.


"So this is an apology bag?"


"No. Open it."


"Vinny, I'm tired. What is going on?"


"Found this in his place. Open it."


I sighed and opened the bag.


"That's more than he stole, right?"


"What is?"


The bag wasn't there any more, we decided.
