"You just ask."
Kazi's explanation was quick and to the point, his confirmation twice as firm.. Leon grumbled to himself thinking he got robbed, which he did. The information he supplied was not particularly complex.
His sensitive ears twitched. 'Drums...? Oh, a tambourine.' The tempo, despite its muffle, seemed oddly familiar. His head bobbed lightly. 'Brazil, Rio. Ha, those guys party hard.'
A player must have returned and gotten the next door neighbours riled up because even Sun-young stopped to listen to the music. For the most part, Nulgupjisin Grill House was a quiet place so it was inevitable that the music would blast through the walls. Samba music combined with modern insturments.
Kazi whistled. "They sure are partying hard. Wanna go outside and join?"
"No thanks," Sun-young said.
"I'm the partying type so hell yeah! See you guys later!"
Either he didn't want to stay or he was a party boy because Leon bolted outside. The German boy dignified a farewell in the form of a wink and a salute.
"He didn't pay for the food he stole from us," William muttered.
