"Why are you blushing?"

His comment caught Dorothy off guard!

"It's a secret."

Everett cleared his throat, obviously not keen on continuing that line of conversation.

But Dorothy had asked, and she was determined to get an answer! Especially with Everett looking like that, her curiosity was through the roof.

"What secret can't you share with me?"

"...It's hot, so I sweated."

That explanation wouldn't convince Dorothy, let alone anyone else!

"Just spill it, I want to know." Dorothy tugged at his shirt sleeve gently.

She was pulling out all the stops with her charm. Everett couldn't possibly hold back now!

"Really want to know?"

He raised an eyebrow, leaning in closer.

Dorothy nodded, "Yes! Teach me, maybe I can use it someday."
