She stole several glances in my direction and I kept this mild sardonic smile on my face to make her know that I'm not in any way bothered by all the mockery she threw at me.

I took more drinks from a sever. Settling my lips on the rim, my smile deepened as I drank slowly with my gaze fixed on her.

I noticed she wasn’t really comfortable when she first saw him. I could see how she stole several glances at him, as though she were trying to point out one of two things. She was a little curious to know about Lorenzo because she kept asking so many questions about him and our past. I’m still curious if she’s satisfied with each of our responses. I’m glad and amazed by Lorenzo’s intervention for satisfying her curiosity with some lies. If he hadn’t, she would have sensed something was amiss and her suspicions about us would have grown.Just one last question from her, and Lorenzo is unsure how to respond.Why is she bringing Cecile into our conversation? Why does she want to know if he’s friends with her?“Do you know who she is?” Emerald asked, her eyes glinting with interest as she stared at Lorenzo, who was now hesitant to give a
