The day Soren won a dual Best Actor award.
I had just gotten out of bed with an old, fat-faced man.
Clutching my aching lower abdomen, I gazed contentedly at the man basking in glory.

"Weren't you so good at serving people just now? Any position is okay, huh?"


Felicity, hearing this, gave me a venomous look before quickly stepping forward to intervene: "Fallon, don't say things out of anger..."
