Thirty Six- Date between friends

"Chloe?"

"Hi?" She took in a deep breath before deciding to turn to face the man behind her.

"Who were you talking to?" Gabriel asked, his eyes darting to the running tap.

"Uh... myself."

"Yourself?"

'Oh boy.'

Chloe's lips smeared into each other as she formulated her response in her head. "Well," she gesticulated. ", I have a health condition."

He moved even closer, his frown deepening. "A health condition?" he asked, his hand going into his baggy jeans which he wore well with a grey turtle neck.

"Well, the thing is..." She drew another breath. "I have this mental issue..."

"Mental issue?"

"I talk to myself a lot."

"Don't we all?"

Her eyes darted to the side, she bit her lip. "Well, in my case, I always imagine I am a detective."

"Okay?"

"And most times, I get quite violent."

"What?" His head ducked a bit as he confusedly processed her words.
