Everett had my life in his hands, and I wasn't scared of anything anymore.
But just when you'd expect a tender moment, I noticed a hint of hesitation on Everett's handsface. It was like he had something on his mind but couldn't find the words.
I beat him to the punch, "What do you wantto promise? Out with it." "...No more late nights, okay? Work just a few hours a day, and when I say rest, you rest." I laughed, "I knew it was going to be that." What else could Everett possibly wantto promise? Two days later, I was discharged from the hospital.

Boy, was she livid, "Jeffrey! If you keep secrets fromagain, I swear I'm leaving!" The thought alone terrified her.
What if...
What if it had been the last time, and she hadn't seen me? She immediately dragged Jeffrey to Bay Residence, and the moment she saw me, she huggedso hard I almost toppled over! "Dorothy! Please, no more hospital trips, okay? Just... no more!" Before I could even respond, there was Karen, all tears and sniffles.
"I'm fine, really. Just overworked myself, that's all," I reassured her, patting her back. "Everett's here, he won't let anything happen to me." If she couldn't trust me, surely she could trust Everett? Karen wiped her tears away, "You can't keep things like this from me! I'm your best friend. Keepin the dark again, and I'll be really mad!" "Yeah, I'll tell you next time." "No! There won't be a next time!" Karen's tics madelaugh, and I pulled her down to sit on the couch.
Jeffrey finally breathed a sigh of relief, "This time, I really can't kesecrets anymore! Karen was actually talking divorce over this!" Those words were like a death sentence for Jeffrey.
Back in the day, marriage was the last thing on his mind! And now, here he was, completely twisted around Karen's little finger.
Even Jeffrey had to admit, "Man, I used to laugh at you for this, and now, look at me. Go ahead, laugh, I deserve it." Then he glanced at Everett, "What's on your mind?" Seemed like Jeffrey's whole spiel went in one ear and out the other for Everett.

Everett's gaze dropped, a shadow crossing his handsface, "I'm thinking of taking Dorothy's place. Quincy said she'd think about it." "What?" Jeffrey's voice shot up. His sudden outburst even made Karen andlook over from the couch! "It's nothing, carry on!" Jeffrey waved us off before lowering his voice, "Are you out of your mind? What's the Point You're just going to end up under Quincy's thumb instead." It was just swapping one person for another.
"I want Dorothy to be safe."
"Then you should use my plan! It's foolproof Look at Heather... she's head over heels for you and you ver Ο haven't given her the tof day.
Just give Quincy a little attention, a bit of care, and she'll fall for you."
Once a woman's got love on the brain, everything else is easy! Jeffrey couldn't understand why Everett was hesitating. It was a classic play, straight out of the oldest war strategies! "Let's get Dorothy out of this mess first. We'll deal with the rest later." Jeffrey waved it off, "Fine, I won't bother convincing you anymore! But I doubt Quincy will agree." X
