Jane Sampson blinked her eyes, then pointed at Peter Gingery's hand covering hers and signaled with her eyes for him to remove it.
Peter Gingery hesitated, "If I remove it, you won't scream?"
Jane Sampson continued to blink her eyes.
Only then did Peter Gingery slowly, bit by bit, move his hand away, his eyes still fixed on Jane Sampson.
Jane Sampson was hooking the corners of her mouth in a smile the whole time. Just when Peter Gingery thought she wouldn't scream anymore, she suddenly opened her mouth to scream, and Peter Gingery instinctively rushed over to cover her mouth again, but Jane Sampson dodged swiftly.
Then, leaning against the refrigerator and bending over, she burst into laughter, "I was just teasing you, Peter Gingery. Are you really that scared?"
