Zahir rubs his temples again. " Hold that thought. I'm going downstairs for coffee. I hope you come get some caffeine too, you look like you need it. Let's talk to that girl."
Zahir makes his way carefully downstairs, and picks a barstool, subdued compared to his raucous behavior before.
He flags the barmaid," coffee please!"
