One day! Just this one whole day! No harm in that, right? It was just after all one day. Better a day than thousands more as part of his crew. I kept on convincing myself. The truth is, I did not expect Jacob to lose. I wagered my day because I believed… truly… honestly… confidently believed in Jacob' skills. I underestimated Jeu. I promised I won't make that same mistake ever again!
So, here I was, walking side by side with Jeu. I still could not forget the look on Jacob's face as Jeu escorted me off Labyrinth. I sighed. I know he would not let this go. When I come back, he will definitely say something.
Jeu chuckled after hearing me sighed. "I promise, Angel, I will make this as painless as possible."
I rolled my eyes, "Please stop calling me that."
"Would you rather that I call you Darling?"
I was quiet for a moment, "On second thought, Angel is fine," I blurted out that elicited his melodic laughter once more.
