“Late in November, Lenny took off for his eagerly anticipated job in Chicago. It had been nearly a year since he played the chilly city, and those who hadn't seen him for that period, or even longer, were shocked at the change in his appearance. The once handsome, animated, brilliant performer and commentator was now a fat, bent, shabby-looking street loafer, a horribly dissipated, baggy-eyed, numb-fleshed junkie, with a tragic darkness in his eyes.”

“Quickly, Butter security descended upon Jenny and escorted her one on each arm to the lobby and out the door. Mickey J ran behind them. "Your friend is a pig and you were trying to pimp me. Take your bag back bitch!", Jenny screamed across the cobblestones. She threw the Fendi clutch at him. Mickey J caught it shrugged, and went back into the restaurant.. He casually dropped the clutch in the trash while texting another model an invite. Back at the table, Micky soothed his thirsty cohort because another nubile beauty was on the way to the restaurant for Niles. Fighting back tears of rage, Jenny hadn't thought this through because in the discarded bag was her Metro card and her good poppy red lipstick. "Can I get you a car?", Brock asked. Jenny looked into the deepest brown eyes with confusion to see had who was talking. "No thank you" Jenny said fuming. Men! So helpful but always with fishing wire attached. Brock motioned over a black town car and opened the back door for Jenny to slid in. "It's on me", he said.”

The icing read.”
