We need to talk

The TV is on all there of them stare at it, but nobody is actually watching it.

"Ahem!" Brian cleared his throat but obviously faked it.

"Ahem!" Natalie copied him.

"Are you guys okay? do you need some lozenges or cough syrup?" She said jested in them but they still look serious.

"We need to ask something to make clarifications and when we're satisfied, we will let this go." Brian's tone is solemn and authoritative. He's always like this when there's a misunderstanding between them.

"Yeah I agree, and we have some questions that you need to answer," Natalie said, but she knew it is not her idea, but obviously she and Brian have already talked.

"I guess I'm not able to escape the interrogation, can I?" None has voiced out but they shook their heads in unison.

"Okay, where should we begin?" Lexie asked looking at Brian first because she knew he's the decision-maker.
