Naomi's response was to laugh. She couldn't help it. She really couldn't. Yes, she was indeed a sucker for puppy eyes, but she'd seen her own father do them often enough to his family to be immune.. Well, immune in the sense she knew she was being 'played'. It didn't stop her from caving when the weapon was used.
"I'm not that smart," Naomi managed to say as she stopped her laughing. "I can't be since I'm going to forgive you despite there being nothing to forgive. Besides, I think I might just be too optimistic for my own good. I always want to believe that things will work out in the end."
