Felicia's POV
"This feels like a surefire way to get us all killed" Abba grumbled
"Oh don't be a carton of sour milk, you haven't even given this plan a chance"
"This plan of yours, hinges on the assumption that the items we need are in the study, what if we get to the study and there's nothing there?!"
"What if we get to the study and find everything we've been looking for?!"
"Is this seriously the time for a sick and twisted state of optimism?" Abba asked over his shoulder, as if he were expecting an answer from Ming who remained the perfect wall of poise and composure he had been for the past week or so.
Ming met Abba's gaze and gave him a big smile, I could feel Abba shudder as he looked away, seeing Abba react to Ming being polite was the only good thing to come out of this entire ordeal.
