Agnes looked up at the bartender and smiled kindly. “Hello. I apologize for tracking the rain in. Could I get a whiskey?”
She slid into the barstool she was standing next to. She usually had a mixed drink, but she didn’t want to drink strong. She made sure she had her wallet on her before taking a look at the menu again. She also didn’t want to spend too much tonight.
“Oh it’s only a bit of water. Bit of water never hurts anyone,” Bill said, smiling right back. He really did seem the enthusiastic sort.“
“That ain’t a problem, ain’t no problem at all,” he said, as he got a glass and the bottle to pour in, “You looking at two fingers here?”
He held his middle finger and index finger up so they were pressed together, in order to demonstrate the amount would go in the glass. That was the standard most people went for when they wanted whiskey.
