The clock struck ten. Zacharias was done with work, and he closed his laptop. He then asked Shirley, “Are you using the bathroom first, or should I go first instead?” Shirley looked at him. “Go ahead.” “I challenge you to cin with me.” Zacharias smiled.
“No.” Shirley didn’t fall for it this time. She realized she had to think every tbefore she answered Zacharias.
