I paused, unsure of how to respond.

If things went well, great, but if they didn't, not only would Ernest never forgive me - which was the least of my concerns - but it could crush him. "Felicia, you're out of ideas too, huh?" Susie misinterpreted my silence as a sign of hopelessness.

Her eyelids drooped, and her face was etched with indescribable disappointment. "Even my brother hesitates because the stakes are too high. I know my situation doesn't inspire confidence in anyone."

After sighing heavily, she looked up at me, forcing a bright smile.

It wasn't that she was fickle; she simply didn't want her mood to dampen mine.
