the race had been over for some time, and the crowd were still pouring through the city, each team taking up camp in the doorway to a bar or an apartment along the street. everyone was still cheering for their side, although im not sure who won. i think we were all winning. as the night grew late, kids were kicking trash cans around the street and fights were breaking out. the crowd was drunk and lost. walking home, or at least to somewhere else.
we went into a cafe to finally sit. it was hidden in the back of one of the buildings along our street and they served only the secretest of drinks to big dark groups of people on big dark cushions.
rami bought us a round of drinks, and i started into mine. bubbly and blue. they soon got up to leave, and i noticed that mine had begun growing poisonous white crystals out of the fluid that a moment ago i was drinking. of course, its delicious because the crystals are deadly. of course.
