"Nina. Nina? Nina, hello? You there?"
Nina flinched, snapping out of her trance. Her eyes shook slightly, darting between the two women looking at her curiously.
"Nina, are you okay?" Penny furrowed her brows and reached out. "You seem a little out of it. Is everything okay?"
Lily nodded. "Did your client bully you or something? Tell me who it was. I'm going to teach them a lesson and let them know the customer isn't always right."
"Haha." A soft, defeated laugh escaped Nina as she gazed at their concerned expressions. "Lily, it's not like that. This isn't school anymore. So no bullying."
"Bullying happens at all ages, and it's not just exclusive to school," Lily replied knowingly. "You're too lenient, after all. Sometimes, I wish you were a little more like the vile kid you used to be."
