had a sickening attitude! She kept rolling her eyes and made ugly facial expressions as she spoke to the officers. She then pointed a finger at us and spoke in a heavy French accent, "This place is very safe. No crime here all the years I live here. You, drama queen, from America, Yes? Go back home if you don't feel safe. Ne dramatise pas tou jours!" Who the hell did that piece of trash think she was calling me a drama queen and telling me to go back home!

He said that Zion was selfish for not letting him know what was going on and shouted angrily that he was busting his balls to get his work transfer approved for nothing! He is way older than Zion and I. He's twenty-five and works at one of my dad's friend's legal firms. I worked there as a temp receptionist over the summer holidays, and we hit it off and became good friends. Every day after work, Zion came to the firm to give me a ride home, and then when they met, well, let's just say it was love at first sight.
