               “ i’m not stupid. “

          an eye for detail keeps her in business. so failing to notice the
          concealed firearm at the woman’s hip might speak ill of her
          capabilities. make people think her reputation is
          nothing but a sham. it isn’t.

               “ your gait favors one side, but it’s not a leg injury. you aren’t limping one bit.
                 no, it’s more like an you accommodating for an uncomfortable protrusion
                 pressing against your hip. you’ve got a jacket on, too, despite the
                 weather being in the nineties. i’m guessing you aren’t too worried
                 about people realizing that, since people are usually stupid.
                 put the gun on the table & then we’ll talk. “
