something vile to her.”

That‘s not true! She was the one who flirted with me first and threw herself on top of me. I barely touched her at all
when she began screaming about me being a creep when I haven‘t done anything at all!”
Shermaine accused him, “Don‘t you dare twist the truth of what happened! Why would I flirt with you of all people?
I have better taste than that!”
The people gathered around seemed to agree with this sentiment and nodded their heads.

“Yeah. Look at this guy. He doesn‘t seem like anything particularly remarkable at all. He‘s as dull as they come.”

Upon hearing about the commotion , she felt she had to go and see what happened to him.

like a disgraced criminal.

Sylvia, keenly aware of the drastic change in the atmosphere, glanced down the other end of the corridor.

even from this distance.
She was taken aback by this and cried out, “Odell?”
Why was he here? Was he not supposed to be at an event?
Before she could figure out what was going on, she recognized a tiny figure hiding behind him in a light purple
dress.

as well and was trembling behind Odell as if she was a maiden being protected by a fearless knight.

look surfaced in her eyes.
