Veronica froze up. What the hell is he doing? He’s giving me a present now? She blinked and looked at Matthew. There was a dark look on his face, and if looks could kill, she would have been dead three times by now. Gotta cheer him up.

She smiled sheepishly. “Um, can you get up for a moment? I need to get the… present.” It was a coincidence that she ran into Larry on her birthday. She would have forgotten all about it if Matthew had not come and told her about it. Matthew was upset, but he still got up and let her get the door anyway.
