"Wait!" I stretched out my palms before he could swoosh me away from his abode.
"What?"
I put my palm flat on the table and narrowed my eyes as I looked at him. "You make me go through all of that, so shouldn't you give me something, at least?"
All that I got so far was a drink and an explanation about the trial, which honestly...I could live without knowing about it. Still nice, but Natha and Eruha always taught me to get whatever I could get.
The blood-red eyes twitched and he let out a scoff. "Look at this audacity,"
"Hey, aren't you the one who needs me?" I argued, crossing my arms and praying inside that he wouldn't smite me for blasphemy. The red eyes narrowed as if he wanted more explanation, so I swiftly elaborated. "You went all the way to send Natha to me, and Mother sent my grandmother over--wasn't that because you need me?"
"How bold," the blood-red eyes narrowed. "Do you know it's called narcissism?"
