The brandy tea kicked in. Pekoe asked for Amaretto dell'Amorosa on ice. His favourite. Looser and more lucid with alcohol, asked his real name, he replied, "Pekoe is fine. Tea can be calming but too much caffiene can set you off without warning when someone pisses you off. It's like having a name which is two names... two personalities. I hear something strange happened. Any idea what or who it was all about?" It was the way he asked that instilled an unease. Who really was the man with two names?
