Chapter Five

“Did anything you just said make any sense to you at all?” Amber asked with a look of disbelief on her face.

“What part doesn’t make sense to you?” he responded.

She scoffed.

“Are you trying to pretend like you don’t see anything wrong with what you just said? What do you mean by saying you want to use me? How did that sentence even make any sense to you?” Amber retorted, wondering if he was stupid or just pretending to be.

“I’m going to be honest with you; the more you say things, the more confused I get. I mean, I have an

idea, but I’m curious to understand where you’re getting at. Don’t get me wrong, though; this doesn’t

mean I have any interest in going along with whatever crazy idea you have, but I do want to hear you
