The pain subsided the moment he said that. Toby stared at the desk, hiding the murderous look that was swelling within his eyes. I knew it. That’s not the last time. That means I’ll have to cheer her up or get anything she wants whenever she wants. If I don’t, I’ll get punished. Sh*t. That means I’m just a puppet! “Thank you, Toby. You’re the best.” Tina didn’t notice his fury, so she smiled sheepishly. He’s back to how he was before the car crash. I guess we’re all patched up now. Toby kept quiet, but he was actually holding back his urge to destroy Tina.

 

At this moment, the manager came back again, but now with a doctor. “Dear customers, please let the doctor have a look,” he quickly told the four of them. At the same time, he complained, What the heck is this? That guy with the crutch almost died earlier, and now the chandelier right on top of that guy fell. Did that guy break a mirror and see a black cat at the same time? “Doctor, I need you to look at Sonia first.” Carl quickly dragged the doctor toward Sonia. However, Tina rolled her eyes and piped up, “Miss Reed, can you hold on for a minute?” Carl’s face fell, and he looked at Tina darkly. “What? You want to go first?”
