Two of her friends enter the room, looking around for Mary. "Did you see her?"
"No," the other one says. "She invited us over, she's gotta be in her room, or the bathroom"
"Oh, right," the first one says. "Do you think she's on the can?"
"Maybe, I hope not," the other one responds.
The two head down a hallway, towards the bathroom and Mary's room, as Mary the tiny fly buzzes along behind them.
She could just fly through the window and be free, but the thought of getting caught is too enticing. Just as one of her friends, Sarah, sees the fly buzzing close around them. Mary lands on Sarah's shoulder, as Sarah's hand tracks the buzzing little fly.. and comes down on Mary!
SPLAT!
"What was that?" Asks the other friend, Suzie.
"Just a bug," Sarah responds.
"Are you sure?" the other girl asks.
"Yeah," Sarah answers. "I'm pretty sure."
The other girl rolls her eyes and leaves.
Sarah's hand is still on the spot where Mary was squashed. She lifts it up and grimaces at the squashed fly on her palm. She wipes it on her shirt and leaves the bedroom. Heading back for the living room, where she comes across the expanded chest of vials.
Sarah grins and coos out, "Oh, hello~ Is this what Mary was talking about? Doubt she'll mind if I delve in without her"
She pops open the first container and stares into the murky liquid, it has the color and odor of red wine. She examines the contents, swirling it around.
"Wow, this is some kinda drink sampler?" and she takes a strong gulp!
