I Love You, Miss Genius

Bonnie heard the crowd's muttering. Her lips curled, still unfazed. Then, she folded her arms across her chest and stared at Niko sarcastically.

"I must applaud you for your acting skill. How much did your client pay you for this? I'll make it double... Scratch that, I'll pay you 10 times as she did. Then, I'l send you back to her so you can put up a similar performance to her all day long. What do you think about that?"

Niko looked like he was beside himself with rage. "You're accusing me of putting on an act? I'm a man and I have my pride. That's it, Bonnie. If you humiliate me any further, I'll jump into the Robinson River. You won't be able to see us ever again!"

She giggled in response. Lifting her chin, she gestured in a certain direction.

"Why would you mention somewhere as far as Robinson River? There's a river nearby. Go ahead and jump in it. No one's going to stop you."

He froze where he stood.

'I was just saying it. I was never going to do it. Normally, the ladies would've come over and pacify me when I say something like this.

'I didn't count on this lady being this tough. Isn't she worried about it at all? What am I supposed to do now? Do I seriously have to jump in the river?'

Noticing that Niko wasn't saying anything, she raised her brows and said, "Do it now! Why aren't you jumping into the river? Are you scared? It doesn't take much to make you hesitate. It looks like you aren't that determined to do it, after all."
