“I’ll go get Tiago. Please, make yourselves comfortable!” She called out, leaving the room.

“Can I offer you some of our best liquor, sir?” A maid asked. Panther was just about to open his mouth, but I raised my hand to stop him, and kindly declined.

Only after a while, Panther huffed to break the silence. “You alright with being here, Marvin?” He asked. probably thinking my behavior had to do with something else.

“Nothing. I’m sorry. I’m just tired.” I covered with a smile. The sides of my lips were hurting because of this facade, but I had to hold on for just a while longer.
