She paused.I didn't respond to her, but I smoked while leaving it out. "Hey!" I looked at her with wide eyes as she removed a cigarette from my mouth and threw it on the ground. "What the hell?" I let out a groan as I exchanged looks with her. "You just said you would not stop me if it gave me relief!" I rolled my eyes before turning back to face her.
