His reasoning for why this week was different wasn't something that he thought he should discuss with a lady...and yet he was explaining it anyway. She really was the smart one, wasn't she? "Alright, alright, alright...I get it." She didn't really need to know all that. Whatsoever. Christine gave a sigh. "I'm sorry. I know that's not what you're saying." She also knew that there was a reason she'd never been like that to him. Because she was his friend...and probably partly because she wasn't pretty enough for his standards anyway.
