Didn't he have anything better to do than cling to her like this? "Then take it off for me!" he teased, leaning closer. "You might find what's underneath... quite appetizing." Suzy swatted him away without hesitation. "I've got things to do and no tfor your nonsense." Extending her hand again, she demanded, "My phone!" The man'chuckled lightly. "It's in my pocket, but my arms seem to be acting up. It hurts to move them. If you want it, you'll have to get it yourself." Her gaze darkened as she warned, "Are you sure about that?" "Never mind!" he said quickly, suddenly less bold.
Truth be told, her icy glare unnerved him a little. "My arms feel fine now." Fishing the phone from his pocket, he handed it over. "It's late already. Don't trouble anyone else. Con, letgive you a ride." Suzy stared at him for a moment before holding out her hand. "Keys." She wasn't about to entrust her life to a man she knew nothing about.

The man deftly caught the vase mid-air, turning it over in his hands as if inspecting a piece of art. "Is this a thank-you gift for bringing you home? Honestly, I'd prefer it if you just gifted yourself to me." "No wonder you like wearing a mask," Suzy shot back, her tone dripping with disdain." With shamelessness like yours, it makes sense you wouldn't dare show your face." Having delivered her retort, she turned and walked further into the house. Over time, she had cto understand a thing or two about this man's antics.

Suzy stormed to the bed, her steps firm with anger. She lifted her foot, fully intent on kicking him off.
