Sally stood up straight and looked toward the back door in anticipation as Jared emerged.

When she saw Jared, her eyes lit up, and she clasped her hands in admiration and exclaimed, “Mama Mia! I see an angel!”

Natalie slapped her hand on her forehead in exasperation and huffed, “Stop being such an airhead! This is my brother, Jared.”

She patted Sally on her back to wake her up from her swooning as she made the introduction.

Sally gulped and walked toward Jared, blabbering, “Hi Angel... No, I mean, hi, Jared. How are you? I'm Sally Oswald.”

Jared was a little overwhelmed by the passion in Sally's eyes, and for a moment, he got scared and hesitated to shake her hand.

He spent most of his time either in the hospital or the art studio, so he was not used to socializing. Sally was the most bubbly girl he had met.

“That... I...” His face was red with embarrassment, and he did not know where to place his hands.

Sally giggled at that sight and gushed, “Your brother is so adorable and innocent, Nat!”

Natalie was also amused by Jared's reaction, as she had never seen him acting like this before as well.

Jared self-consciously hung his head low, afraid to meet their eyes.

“Okay, stop it, Sally. Stop teasing Jared.” Natalie rolled her eyes at Sally and went up to hold Jared's hand to assure him. “Jared, this is my friend Sally. Don't mind her. She's crazy over hunks and reacted that way because you're good-looking. Simply ignore her,” she said.
