Billy put himself between Goodnight and the door. He was trying to keep himself in check. There was a certain thought that went through his head: Goodnight Robicheaux was old enough and experienced enough to do whatever he wanted. Billy was not the keeper of Goodnight Robicheaux, especially when he wasn't there to keep him.
But there was a young Korean boy on the other side of that door, and no matter what he thought of the idea of Goodnight finding comfort in someone else, he was on fire thinking that Goodnight might have found a companion that reminded him of Billy when he'd first met him.
His words were slow, edging toward disgruntled curiosity. "You just happened to find a young Korean boy to help keep you out of the bottle?"
