The silence that followed Merry’s outburst was eerie.

Cordelia looked on, completely baffled, wondering what Merry was rambling about.

Even Bland, usually so composed, seemed stunned. His expression was frozen, and the mole under his eye seemed to betray his surprise. After a five–second pause, as Merry started to regret her words, Bland smiled. “Or, you want to help me with that?”

Cordelia was speechless.

Merry’s eyes widened in shock, her mind screaming. “Oh my god! Oh my god, my idol noticed me. My idol spoke to mell” She was flustered and stuttered, “I, I, I can’t help you!”

Cordelia gave up on her, sidestepping into the restroom and leaving the two alone.
