"She sure likes to talk, doesn't she?" "It's not every day she meets someone like you." Dorothy pulled out a chair and sat down, watching Everett hoist both kids into their seats. "She said you'd rather suffer than accept help.” Everett placed a glass of milk in front of her, "I just don't like other women touching me, that's all." "You're not worried aboutgetting jealous, are you?" The thought suddenly popped into Dorothy's head.

"We can stay in Snowfall City for a while." "What about your work?" "Jeffrey's got it covered." Dorothy shook her head with a smile, "Let's not. Your health is what's important. We need to get you back to Swevia County as soon as possible." "Dorothy, I don't want you to have any regrets." She shook her head in his arms, "I don't have regrets anymore."

Paloma paused, then whispered, "What's going on with you and m Karen? She toldyou two aren't even dating!" "She said that?" Jeffrey raised an eyebrow as he got into his car.
"Yes! Your father and I are completely confused. What's the deal?"
"Oh, well, I just ticked her off so she's playing hard to get! Haven't you m heard her say she's my girlfriend?" Jeffrey chuckled. "I'll just need to sweet-talk her a bit, and everything will be fine." Paloma was still somewhat skeptical, "Really?"
"Really! I'm heading hto charm her now. You didn't let her leave, did you?" "No, no, we just didn't want her storming off in a huff.” Jeffrey breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, I'll head hnow and we'll talk soon!"
