Chapter 17

A range of emotions flashed across his face.[]

“Do you not want me to come back?” she asked, wondering if he was implying that he was not comfortable with having her around. He was giving himself an out to not look bad.]

He revealed a sad smile. “I would be saddened to lose you as a patient just like any other patient here.“[]

Pandora nodded, sensing there was more to his words than met the eye. Still, she ignored it. “I would like to continue coming here. And I am sorry for my inappropriate behavior earlier.” She bowed.]

“He still is,” she stated, feeling proud of her father’s reputation within the ranks of the judiciary. “Would you like some coffee or tea? I plan on having some tea,” she said.[]

“Sounds good to me. I’ll have whatever you are having. I’ll just take a look around if you don’t mind.” He didn’t wait for her to respond

and started to inspect each corner. Pandora walked into the kitchen and started making a pot of tea and some snacks. It had been forty five minutes since her injection and she knew to try and eat.[]

“Everything looks good, but I noticed that you don’t have a security system installed. I have a friend who owns a local security system company. He can install one at a much lower price than any other company will charge you.“]]
