Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Dulcie glanced at Casey, who appeared lost in thought, and asked, “Miss Casey, what are you looking at? Are you hungry? Should we order?”

Symeon also noticed her distraction and asked, “What are you looking at? Aren’t you hungry?”

“I’m not very hungry. You go ahead and order for Dulcie. I need to go to the bathroom. I’ll be right back.”

“Miss Casey does seem preoccupied. Why don’t you go and check on her?”

“Why should I care about her? That’s her privacy. If she doesn’t want to tell you, then don’t pry too much, understand?”

Dulcie pouted and nodded. “Okay.”
