Legacies of light

Arc 8.15

"What's with you hanging your head so low, come on and call already, you don't plan to fold, do you?"

Behind me, one of my friends says, "Amer would never fold, even if his life depends on it!"

With a face of dread, I look at my friend as another one of them says, "Yeah even if he has to go home broke forever, he would never fold."

You fucking bastards have just made it so much harder to walk out of here.

"That's good to hear, because you were just running your lips a second ago, if you folded you would be a giant clown," she says with a smile.

Behind me, one of my friends says, "The one laughing, in the end, will be Amer, isn't that right guys?"

"YEAH!" My friends scream. Soon after that, they start cheering my name over and over, "AMER, AMER, AMER, AMER!"

Hearing this I start to feel invigorated, what the hell am I getting worked up about, there is no way I can lose with this hand, I have just been letting this little girl get into my head. I am the greatest gambler ever to be born.
