with Mason.To her surprise, Lucas was home as well.“Why aren’t you overseeing matters at the office today?” She was curious.“Relax!” He eyed Lisanne and muttered to Winnie, “I stayed home for Lisanne. She’s a bit down in the dumps. Go on and talk to her, then I’ll take both of you out for a fun afternoon.”“Okay.” She nodded. “But count me out. It will only be both of you. There’s something else I have to do later.”“What is it?”“I have a banquet this evening, and I need to pick out a dress.” “We should go together!” He said. “Please bring Lisanne, and I’ll foot the bill today.

Do you think it makes sense that you said you wanted to try it first?”“What do you mean it doesn’t make sense? I said I saw it first but haven’t gotten the chance to try it on. Do you understand the term ‘first-come, first-served’?” The young woman argued haughtily, each word coming out of her mouth growing increasingly absurd.“So what if you tried it on?
