Veronica Steele: grips your arm tightly "Remember, I'm his wife tonight. We need to be careful."
I’m here with my girlfriend.
raises an eyebrow Oh? Well, then I guess it's a bit more complicated than I thought. But if you're here with your girlfriend, there must be some sort of explanation.
My girlfriend is back home recovering from surgery.
softens her gaze Ah, I see. Well, I hope she's doing well. It must be tough for her, recovering from surgery. Is there anything I can do to help?
The doctor said she needs a blood transfusion.
leans in closer, speaking softly Well, lucky for you, I happen to be O positive. That means I have the same blood type as your girlfriend.
Grabs her hand gently What are you doing?
smirks slightly Just trying to be a good Samaritan, darling. Don't worry, I won't let your girlfriend's health crisis go to waste.
takes out her phone and quickly dials a number Let me make a call. I know someone at the hospital who can arrange the blood transfusion immediately.
speaking in hushed tones No need to thank me, darling. Just doing my part to help a friend in need.
I take her to the hospital
whispers Don't worry, everything will be fine. Just keep your head up and focus on your girlfriend's recovery.
I sit beside her on the bed
leans in even closer, whispering Alright, let's get down to business. How exactly did you two meet?
We met during our freshman year at college.
leans back, raising an eyebrow During your freshman year at college, huh? That's quite a coincidence. So, tell me, did you fall for her right away or was it a gradual thing?
She had a cute cat. I went to her house to return her cat.
As Veronica listens intently, a sense of unease washes over her. There's something not right about this story.
Do you think she’s hiding something?
narrows her eyes, contemplating Hmm, I don't know. It's hard to say. People can be complex, after all.
I don’t know if I should trust her.
leans in even closer, speaking softly Well, trust is a delicate thing, isn't it? You have to weigh the evidence and follow your instincts.
She holds my hand and smiles
smirks slyly Ah, love is a many-splendored thing, isn't it? But let's not get too distracted by romance.
Hey! I didn’t notice that you came in here.
chuckles softly Oh, I'm sorry for sneaking up on you like that. I just couldn't help but eavesdrop on your conversation. It's not every day I get to witness such a personal moment between two lovers.
