"I see," Bill said.
Verona smiled. It was the heartiest smile Bill had ever seen enough to make his heartstrings be pulled.
"My name is Verona. What about you?"
"Bill… Bill Ritters nice to meet…"
Bill was about to end his sentence and continue further too but he got pulled by his sleeve halting him in his speech.
"Bill what are you trying to do?"
"Trying to hold a conversation I guess?" Bill said as he tried to get back his balance as he fumbled. He narrowed his eyebrows as his hands briefly clenched.
The others weren't in good moods either as they had their arms crossed.
"Are you insane? How can you trust her so easily?"
Bill shook his head. Bill could feel the rising hostility towards himself so he reduced his tone by a notch.
"I am not trusting her. I am just trying to figure out if she is trustworthy or not."
The man frowned.
