okay i know this excerpt makes no sense because you don't know the context, the characters etc but what do you think of the writing style?
"What does she look like?"
I've taken a cigarette out of its packet but I don't light it. I wait for him to speak, knowing I'm not going to like what I hear.
"She's..." He raises his eyebrows, takes a long drag on his cigarette, exhales, stares at the ground meaningfully, and then finally manages to say, "She's nice, you know? Short. Tanned."
No, I don't know. I don't want to fucking know, either.
He gives me a sideways glance when I don't reply to see what my expression is, but it's blank.
"You gonna light that?" He nods at my cigarette, taking a quick drag on his own.
