Chapter 58 - Long Time

As the situation grew more tense and tense by the second, everyone stood in the room with dire anticipation of what's to come. Even me, I hadn't the first clue as to what's gonna happen. Zenia got way too defensive about me calling out her reactions, and it definitely did not sit well with her. 

Out of the blue, Francis stood in front of me, and behind him, Caleb stood opposing her. Both of them were holding us back, and even Francis held me a bit, even though I wasn't going to do anything, unless provoked. I'm not all that aggressive, you know.

"He's right, Dan. We shouldn't be fighting now," Francis added.

"I wasn't going to do anything," I replied, "Just trying to be frank here."

"Well, don't. I don't agree with her sentiment, but it's her own point of view, keep that in mind," he said.
