He'd come into the new year clean, and intended to do his best to stay that way.

He'd pushed himself through a job interview that morning, and was supposed to stop off for groceries next, but a dizzy spell had nearly left him flat on the pavement. So instead he'd wandered into a small cafe, ordering a cup of tea and a sandwich before settling into the last booth in the corner. His hand trembled every time he lifted his mug, and he knew he looked a little pale.
"It's fine," he whispered to himself. "You're fine. It's fine..."

"Sorry- Shit, I'm so sorry," he said, reaching for some napkins as he spoke.
