"Uh, Yeah He's Here.. John B!"

"Hey What can we do for you?" John B glanced at her.

"Dcs, Called they wanted to see how y'all where doing." She eyed both Her and John Carefully.

"You know beside the" She pointed to Johns Buised face.

"Oh No! I'm great, Yeah Fantastic. Thanks for coming by" He spoke while they both sweeped all the Beer bottles to the garbage.
