Josiah almost fell off his seat. He looked at us in disbelief, "Couples indeed act alike! You two, leave, now."

As I knew I wouldn't get anything out from Josiah, I stopped harassing him.

On the other hand, Hendrix held onto my arm and pulled me out of Josiah's office. It seemed like he went to Josiah's office wanting to meet me. I followed closely behind him, wondering how he might react to what happened just then.

Hendrix didn't say anything even when we got in the car. He seemed mad at me, but at the same time, he didn't look mad.

I couldn't figure him out, so I asked instead, "Have you eaten anything?" It was just in time for dinner.
