“Sir, you admitted to a crime not moments ago. And we've already reviewed the security footage. You came to his table and started the confrontation. If nothing else, you lied on an official statement.”
The guard read him his rights, but the boy continued to refute the guard’s words as he was frog marched away.
After giving his own statement and being asked to wait, a separate guard came over to Matt half an hour later. “You’re clear but, in the future, please, don’t use so much force.”
He just thanked the man and assured him he would be more careful if something like this happened again. He hoped it didn’t. Those assholes had ruined his dinner.
Grabbing a meal to go, Matt went back to his room to find Jasmine sprawled across his bed.
