Before Keira could finish her sentence, Erin walked over, interrupting her. "Actually, what she's trying to say is that I'm a pretty good person. Mary, mind treating me like a bestie too from now on?"

Keira furrowed her brows and tightened her jaw.

Once again, Mary looked back at Keira.

Keira was momentarily stunned.

Mary smiled at her, then patted her on the shoulder. "I'll see you later."

Keira nodded.
