She watched me.

“I will sit over here.” I set the chair back down. “For now.”

She remained silent.

“However. . .remember this.” I pointed at her. “If you end up makingmebeg tonight, I will makeyouscream later.”

Yes. Yes. You won this round, but don’t get comfortable. . .I’m either tied with you or I’m still winning.

My Tiger made me sit down.
