Getting out of the car, Lina smiled at the generous stranger who had given her a lift to Benji's apartment.
"Thank you, Jackson." She expressed her gratitude by bowing her head at him.
"Hey, Lina. There's no need for that." The man named Jackson waved his hand to make her stop.
"How can I not show my gratitude? I'm so glad that I met you there and also glad that you did not turn out to be a psycho killer!" She sighed but then realized what she had just blurted out.
Jackson shook his head, looking at her tongue pushed into her cheek, and raised his hand to pat her head as one would do to a child.
"Well, you did warn me that you know self-defense and would kick my ass if I tried to murder you." He smirked while repeating the words that she had spoken before she entered his car.
"I really do!" She whined while posing in a karate stance which made him laugh louder.
