I saw the disgust in Bailey’s eyes at my initial comment, but the disgust soon turned to pain at my sly dig. I don’t even know where it came from… I was awaiting a sarcastic reaction from her like previously before. She seemed good at them, but then I saw the tears building in her eyes and she quick
